In order to address any questions police authorities may have when recording cases under the new criminal rules, a 10-digit mobile number is helpful. The “Investigation Support Centre,” located in the Telangana police headquarters, is a resource that law enforcement agencies throughout the state can use to ask any questions about the recently enacted legislation. Since the first day of the new laws, thirty questions have been answered by the special number for police authorities.
