Delhi Police and Shikhar organization comes together to establish India 1st community initiative for providing the best educational support to the students

Given the then  Special Commissioner of Police Transport Range Shri Praveen Ranjan, IPS suggested that such a library should also be made in PS Okhla Vihar Metro Police Station so that more and more needy students can get the benefit of it and youth should be made a good citizen by providing help through education.

Shri Devesh Chandra Srivastava, Joint Commissioner of Police, led this unique project, and we connected to more PSUs for CSR support to open more libraries in different police stations. And this library shifted to the PPP model.

Nadeem Akhtar, a Director, has been running Delhi Police Public Libraries successfully and without any selfishness through his NGO Shikhar for the last ten years, due to which this project has emerged as a unique project in the form of Community Policing Project all over India, which is a striking example in itself.

On 22 February 2022, on the occasion of the Inauguration Ceremony of the Delhi Police Public Library, at PS Okhla Vihar Metro Station, Shri Rakesh Asthana, IPS, worthy Commissioner of Delhi Police, because of this project, declared that such libraries should be opened in every police station across Delhi and in his speech he also said we request Nadeem Ji and Shikhar Ngo should help Delhi Police in opening such libraries in all the police station within coming two years.

Now a total of 11 new libraries are open in different police stations, and thousands of underprivileged students benefit from these libraries, which are available for all free of cost with world-class infrastructure and facilities.
