e-Malkhana App launched in 6 police stations of Buxar

Buxar: Marking a transformative step towards digitisation and transparency in police operations, e-Malkhana App has been launched in six police stations of the district. This innovative system is designed to modernise the management of seized items stored in malkhanas. Inspired by a similar initiative implemented by the Delhi Police, the e-Malkhana App enables digital cataloguing of every seized item using unique identification codes, high-resolution photographs, associated case details and precise storage location mapping. The app has been launched in six police stations—Itadhi, Dhansoi, Tilak Rai Ka Hata, Chakki, Bagen Gola and Vasudeva outpost of the district. Buxar SP, Shubham Arya, said, "Items stored in the malkhana are the property of the court and they must be produced when required. Delays or mishandling can severely impact the delivery of justice. The e-Malkhana app ensures that every item is traceable and its condition verifiable in real time." Earlier, records were maintained on paper—making them vulnerable to damage, misplacement, or manipulation. Searching for a single piece of evidence could take hours, often delaying court proceedings. In some cases, evidence went missing or was intentionally hidden. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 5 Books Warren Buffett Wants You to Read In 2025 Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo This inefficient system made officers hesitant to take charge of malkhana duties.
