I am a resident of Greater Kailash-1 for the past over 3 decades and having been associated with the residents welfare for years. There has been off and on interaction with the Greater Kailash Police personnel from time to time.
My personal experience has been exceptionally good as all the senior officers and staff has been very responsive & efficient in performing their duties. They have won many a hearts and trust of the general public by attending to the needs of the people beyond their call of duty.
