Once a criminal is booked for any crime anywhere in India, the details will be available online after the headquarter of National Crime Record Bureau (NCRB) is linked with the police IT database of all states, a a senior Haryana police officer said today.
The Central Monitoring System (CMS) launched by the Centre is likely to be completed by the end of this year, Inspector General of Police, Shatrujeet Kapur, who is the nodal officer (IT) of Haryana Police, told reporters here.
"Information about civil, criminal and financial violations and acts of terror, is going to be pooled through the National Intelligence Grid (NATGRID), country's leading anti-terror information and intelligence support organisation.
"The sequenced data would help security agencies (Enforcement Directorate, RAW, CBI, IB and NCRB) to surf and search details about the offender concerned or culprit. Joint data of about two dozen departments including railway and air travel, income tax, phone records, credit card transactions, bank accounts and land revenue records are going to help the police in a big way," he said.
Criminals won't be able to leave country and would be tracked down soon through the Internet if they operate their bank accounts or use railway or other related services, Kapur said.
In Haryana, 32,000 police personnel have been trained to work on computer as all police stations are going to be interlinked soon, he added.
