लगभग 10 साल के बाद रेलवे स्टेशन पर पुनः पुलिस चौकी की स्थापना हुई है। चौकी की स्थापना से नगर निवासियों ने खुशी का इजहार किया है। हेल्पर्स के प्रधान तिलक राज अग्रवाल ने बताया कि सोसाइटी पिछले लंबे समय से रेलवे स्टेशन पर पुलिस चौकी स्थापित करने के लिए प्रयासरत थी।
उन्होंने बताया कि शाहाबाद में बहुत लंबे समय तक रेलवे पुलिस की चौकी स्थापित थी, लेकिन लगभग 10 वर्ष पूर्व इस चौकी को बंद कर दिया था। पुलिस चौकी के बंद होने से नगर निवासियों को भारी परेशानी का सामना करना पड़ रहा था। रेलवे प्लेटफार्म लंबा होने के कारण लोगों को चोरी आदि का डर सताता था। वही रात्रि के समय अंधेरे में यात्रियों को किसी अनहोनी का भय...

चौकी स्थापित होने से रेलवे स्टेशन पर होने वाले अपराधों में कमी आएगी। उन्होंने बताया कि दुर्घटना की स्थिति में या आत्महत्या की स्थिति में पुलिस टीम को कुरुक्षेत्र से आने में घंटों लग जाते थे। जिससे हेल्पर की टीम को दुर्घटना पीड़ितों को सहायता पहुंचाने में भारी परेशानी होती थी। क्योंकि पुलिस टीम के आने से पूर्व शव को भी नहीं उठाया जा सकता था।
जीआरपी क्षेत्र के थाना प्रभारी जोगिंदर सिंह ने बताया कि शाहबाद रेलवे स्टेशन पर स्थापित पुलिस चौकी में एएसआई गुरदेव सिंह ने नए प्रभारी के तौर पर कार्यभार संभाला है। जबकि बाल किशन और रंजीत सिंह सहायक अधिकारी के रूप में तैनात रहेंगे। उन्होंने आशा व्यक्त की है कि पुलिस चौकी स्थापना होने से रेलवे स्टेशन पर होने वाले अपराधों में कमी आएगी।
