28 March 2026: Centre for Development of Telematics (C-DOT), the premier telecom R&D institution under the Department of Telecommunications (DoT), Government of India, has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Delhi Police in a landmark step towards advancing technology-driven, indigenous, and secure policing solutions for the national capital.
This strategic collaboration aims to leverage C-DOT's portfolio of cutting-edge, homegrown technological solutions to significantly enhance the operational efficiency, secure communications, surveillance, cybersecurity, and emergency response capabilities of Delhi Police, reinforcing the vision of Atmanirbhar Bharat in the domain of public safety and law enforcement.
Under the MoU, C-DOT will deploy nine advanced solutions purpose-built for modern policing requirements. The Facial Recognition System (FRS)/FraudPro will enable identification of suspects, missing persons, and repeat offenders through photograph-matching with available databases, strengthening investigation processes, crowd monitoring, and identity verification during law-and-order deployments. SAMVAD, C-DOT's Unified Communication Solution, will provide a secure platform for one-to-one and group chats, audio/video calls, and official data sharing, enabling seamless and secure coordination across units, districts, and specialized branches during both routine operations and emergencies. Complementing this, SAMVAD Prime, a dedicated specialised handset-based secure messaging system will be deployed among senior officers and operational teams to ensure confidentiality and integrity during critical operations.
C-DOT Meet, a secure web-based video conferencing solution featuring multi-camera access, presentation sharing, and collaborative whiteboards, will facilitate briefings, inter-unit coordination, and training sessions. The C-DOT Mission Critical Services (MCX) platform will enable secure, private, and low-latency communications specifically designed for public safety and emergency operations, ensuring real-time coordination among field officers during large-scale events, disaster response, and law-and-order situations. The C-DOT Intelligent Attendance System, powered by facial recognition, will enhance administrative efficiency through accurate attendance recording, prevention of proxy marking, and strengthened access control at sensitive police installations.
The C-DOT Cell Broadcast Solution will enable geo-targeted dissemination of critical alerts across mobile devices and public display systems, supporting public advisories, traffic alerts, missing person notifications, and emergency warnings.
On the cybersecurity front, Trinetra ESOC, an AI-powered integrated security operations platform will monitor endpoints, identify vulnerabilities, and detect anomalies, safeguarding Delhi Police's IT infrastructure including the internal ecosystem and internet-facing systems; while Trinetra 360 will deliver cyber intelligence, brand monitoring, attack surface monitoring, and AI-driven digital risk management. Rounding out the deployment, C-DOT's Quantum-based Security Solutions, including the Compact Encryption Module (CEM), Quantum Secure Smart Video Phone (QSSVIP), and Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) will provide future-ready, quantum-resilient secure voice, video, and data communications for the Delhi Police environment.
Speaking on the occasion, Dr. Rajkumar Upadhyay, CEO, C-DOT, expressed, "This partnership with Delhi Police is a testament to C-DOT's unwavering commitment to translating indigenous innovation into real-world impact. By deploying our advanced solutions across secure communications, AI-driven surveillance, cybersecurity, and quantum security, we are proud to contribute to building a safer, smarter, and more resilient ecosystem in Delhi. This collaboration is a significant stride in realizing the vision of a technology-empowered, Atmanirbhar Bharat.”
The MoU signing ceremony was graced by Shri Satish Golchha, Commissioner of Police, Delhi and Dr. Rajkumar Upadhyay, CEO, C-DOT, along with senior officials from both organizations.
