BHUBANESWAR: People in the twin cities now need not run around to get different kinds of permissions from police. A new one-stop destination was thrown open to public on Friday, when chief minister Naveen Patnaik inaugurated an impressive building to house the commissionerate of police here.
Coinciding with Utkal Divas, the police commissionerate got its permanent office over three years after it came into being. "A single window clearance system will help the public have easy access to our service," police commissioner B K Sharma said. Earlier people used to visit different police stations to get the work done.
Built over a sprawling 1.20 lakh sq ft near the 120 Battalion, the four-storey palatial building could be the second elegant government office in the city after the ECoR headquarters. "It is an impressive structure in the state," Naveen said. Notably, the Rs 20-crore building is much bigger than the state police headquarters. However, the office will be fully operational after five months. Currently, the twin city police commissioner's office is functioning in the annex of the state guest house.
"The new office is almost ready. We are giving final touches to the building. It will be fully operational in five months," chairman and managing director of Orissa State Police Housing and Welfare Corporation Sudhanshu Sarangi said.
The giant structure with 33 giant Gothic pillars and marvellous architecture was built in 18 months, Sarangi said. It is a treat to watch the Rs five lakh-clock placed atop the central dome of the building. "We bought the clock from Switzerland," Sarangi said.

Close circuit TV cameras have been installed at different points in the building. "Modern gadgets like boom barriers and motorized gates have been installed at the entrance point as part of upgraded security system," he said.
The structure has a public interface area and an auditorium for accommodating nearly 200 police officers. "The building has the five star energy efficient technology to reduce the consumption of power. We have also set up solar power and rain water harvesting facilities," Sarangi said.
