Mangalore Police Department's initiative towards Social Welfare

Slightly old news article but definitely worth sharing: http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2013-06-14/mangalore/39975389_1_helpline-destitute-police-department .

Excellent example of collaboration between Mangalore’s Police Department and Organizations working in social sector, to deal with issues related to welfare of senior citizens and other vulnerable groups.

Often organizations working in social sector face resource and financial constraints. Through such initiatives government bodies(and even private organizations) can extent their support by providing infrastructure to organizations working for social cause. Also, such an initiative will result in speedy and efficient implementation of welfare programmes, as both police department and welfare organizations will be working simultaneously on the execution of such initiatives.

We need more such initiatives across India for enhancing the quality of life of senior citizens and other vulnerable groups.
