New Delhi, Jan 2 (IANS) Youth in the national capital will soon help Delhi Police in improving the interface between patrolling staff and communities, Delhi Police chief B.S. Bassi said Friday.

"We have started a unique active community policing scheme involving people aged between 18 and 35 years called 'Yuva Prahari'," Bassi told the media.

"Under this scheme young adults, after attending a specially designed orientation programme by Delhi Police, will be part of the patrolling teams in the PCR vans operating in their area. They will assist the police team in handling the calls," he said.

He said these young volunteers will help in further improving the interface between the patrolling staff and people.

On a pilot basis, 125 such volunteers, including 36 girls, have been selected after a due selection process and police verification.

The volunteers have been imparted training for a week which includes basic first aids, self defence and an understanding of the functioning and structure of the emergency response system.
