BOKARO: The setting up of two model police stations in the steel city is getting delayed as the police department is finding it difficult to acquire land from Bokaro Steel Plant (BSL) for its construction.
The police officials have expressed discontent against BSL after getting unsatisfactory response from them. The department plans to upgrade the Harla and Marphari police stations and require land in this regard. The model police stations will be equipped with separate cells for men and women, barrack, residential quarters for police officers, computer room, etc.
SP Kuldeep Dwivedi has asked the BSL management to provide land for the two stations but the firm is yet to give a positive response to the police department.
The BSL management has informed the SP that sale and lease of company land has been suspended since May, 2011 as per central government directives. The chairman of Steel Authority of India Limited (SAIL) has issued a direction to the BSL management that the authorities have to seek permission from Cabinet for sale or lease of land.
"The BSL management cannot allot land to the district police department before getting a no objection certificate (NOC) from central government," said a BSL officer.
