    Sir, I wish to congratulate the new Police Commissioner, Mr. Satyapal Singh because, we clearly see a difference - a better managed and supervised traffic, a strong, determined action against criminals (including “encounters”),and somehow I do sincerely feel that Police Chiefs such as Mr. Satyapal Singh can and will really do much good for Pune. Yes, Pune is fortunate to have such efficient and committed Police officers, who inspire confidence and faith in the Police department. I must also say that Mr. Satyapal Singh`s overall personality itself embodies an uncompromising integrity, sincerity and determination of purpose. I am sure that all officers working in the Pune Police Commissionerate will be inspired by the new Police chief.
    I sincerely send my heartiest good wishes to the CP and the entire Pune Police.

    PS: Kindly rectify the write-up about Mr. Satyapal Singh,because I think the name of the previous CP is still there, which causes confusion.
    Thanks & kind regards.
