The National Intelligence Grid (NATGRID), which shares real-time data on intelligence inputs and status of different probes with law-enforcement agencies across the country, in a communication through the Ministry of Home Affairs has asked all state police forces to enhance their engagements with the online system and proactively use the database for crime control and reigning in criminals, officials said on Sunday.

The NATGRID shares data with 11 central agencies and all state police forces in real-time on terror activities, organized criminal gangs, financial transactions, immigration, circulation of counterfeit currency and narcotics and other inputs.

The officials said in a letter to the Director General of Police (DGP) of all states, Piyush Goyal, NATGRID Chief Executive Officer, has requested them to instruct their respective forces to effectively utilize the NATGRID solution.

The letter specifically emphasized on encouraging the district superintendents of police (SPs) for a wider use of the NATGRID database in their crime-control and law-enforcement initiatives, they added.
