Amit Shah lays foundation for largest State-of-the-Art Police Line

Ahmedabad: Union Home and Cooperation Minister Amit Shah, along with Gujarat Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel, laid the foundation stone for the largest and most modern police line at Ghatlodia police station in Ahmedabad. This new facility is set to become a cornerstone of Gujarat’s urban policing infrastructure, providing advanced amenities for the state’s police force.

Modern Housing and Facilities for Police Families

The new police line will feature modern 2-BHK flats (55 square meters) for police personnel, with 18, 13-story buildings providing homes for 920 police families. These housing units are designed to cater to the growing needs of the police force while ensuring they have the best living conditions.

Along with housing, the police line will be equipped with a range of modern amenities, including basement parking for 930 cars, two lifts, an open garden, water harvesting systems, solar rooftops, and power backups to ensure uninterrupted services. Additionally, to provide convenience to the police families, 10 shops will be set up within the towers, offering daily essentials like vegetables, milk, and other products, ensuring that residents do not have to go far for their needs.

Future-Proofing with Additional Facilities

Recognizing the future needs of police families, the project also includes plans for the construction of a material shop, hair salon, ATMs, a grain grinding mill, and a CPD (Canteen Purchasing Division) to cater to the ever-expanding requirements of police personnel. The facility will also include essential features like kitchens, annexes, and common toilets in each of the 18 towers, ensuring a comfortable and convenient living experience for the residents.

Inbuilt Police Station for Enhanced Security

One of the most unique aspects of this modern police line is that it will also house an inbuilt police station. One of the 18 blocks will be converted into a two-story police station, ensuring that law enforcement officers are always close to their homes and can respond quickly to any emergencies in the area.

The project represents a significant step towards modernizing Gujarat’s police infrastructure, improving the living standards of police personnel, and making the police force more efficient and effective in safeguarding the city. With its blend of residential space and professional facilities, this development is expected to serve as a model for other regions across the state.

This initiative by the Gujarat government, along with the contribution of the Union Home Minister, is a testament to the administration’s commitment to the welfare of its law enforcement officers and their families. The new police line will be a vital addition to the urban policing landscape of Ahmedabad.
