History
The Pakistan Railways Police was founded according to the Pakistan Railways Police Act, 1977, which outlines the formation and governance of this law enforcement agency. The act along with the accompanying Rules, 1980, grant authority to the Chief Executive and the Inspector General, and these regulations are relevant to the employees within the Pakistan Railways Police, who are considered civil servants.[1][2][3]
In February 2022, a decision was made by the government to enhance the pay scale of Pakistan Railways police personnel. This decision was unprecedented in the nation's history and was driven by the goal of reducing discrepancies in pay among officials from various departments and fostering a sense of professionalism within the Pakistan Railways police department.[4]
Achievements and initiatives
Digital Transformation
In the beginning of 2023, the Pakistan Railways Police initiated a digital transformation. Key police stations nationwide have implemented a digital system with support from the Punjab Information Technology Board (PITB). This endeavor is aimed at modernizing the work environment and enhancing service provision.[5]
Advanced control room
In July 2023, Rao Sardar Ali Khan, the Inspector General of Pakistan Railways Police, officially opened a state-of-the-art control center at the Central Police Office Railways in Lahore. This control room is a vital component of the technology-driven efforts and encompasses various areas such as the Criminal Record Office (CRO), Criminal Record Management System (CRMS), Police Station Record Management System (PSRMS), Wireless Control, CCTV monitoring, and Social Media.[6]
e-Police mobile app
In December 2022 the Pakistan Railways Police introduced a contemporary E-Police mobile app for easy access to criminal records. This application was created in collaboration with the Punjab Information Technology Board (PITB) and linked to criminal records from various police services, such as the Punjab Police and Sindh Police.[7]
Crime prevention
The Pakistan Railways Police apprehended approximately 3,720 individuals for breaking rules and laws. They filed about 3,454 cases against them in a year across eight Railways divisions.[8]
