Chandigarh, April 17 (Inditop.com) Haryana Police will provide laptops to every constable in its force in the next three years, a top official announced here Saturday.
The technological upgrade will “enable every constable to keep pace with the other sections of the society in this age of information technology,” Ranjiv Dalal, Haryana Police chief said.
