Mail Today has a copy of the RTI documents that show Delhi Police paid Rs295.66 crore to Jay Pee and Co and Rs 37.22 cr in the form of rent to other companies for using buses, mini buses

New Delhi:
When it comes to renting vehicles, Delhi Police apparently doesn't drive a hard bargain. The department's data show it spent Rs300 crore on hiring 400 cars in six years when it could have purchased about 2,800 vehicles with the same amount.

The revelation comes amid reports of the city police fighting staff and fund crunch. For instance, a study by voluntary organisation Praja Foundation said last month that the number of cops working in different districts in the Capital is less than the sanctioned strength, with the shortage ranging anywhere between 45 and 545.

Mail Today has a copy of the RTI documents that show Delhi Police paid Rs295.66 crore to Jay Pee and Co (WZ-424, Raj Nagar, Palam Colony) for 350 Gypsies and 50 SUVs between January 2010 and March 2016.

Criticising the move, automobile experts wishing anonymity said: "With this amount the government and police officials could have bought 2,800 SUVs, or purchased 400 SUVs for Rs50cr and spent the rest on other programmes."
