SP Rao stressed prompt resolution of complaints received through the Praja Samasya Parishkara Vedika, with proper documentation. He directed officers to prioritize and conclude investigations related to POCSO, crimes against women, road accidents, property offenses, and missing persons efficiently, ensuring timely charge-sheet filing.
