E. Sundaravathanam assumed charge as Superintendent of Police of Karur district on Friday.
A 2016 batch IPS officer, Mr. Sundaravathanam had earlier worked as Deputy Commissioner of Police (Traffic) at Chennai, Superintendent of Police, Chengalpattu, and Deputy Commissioner of Police of Madhavaram and Washermanpet before being transferred and posted SP of Karur district.
In a press release, the SP said the general public could approach police stations without any fear and if they had grievances they could approach higher officers and could contact him as well.
Speedy action would be initiated on complaints relating to usury, and safety of women, children and the general public would be ensured. Steps would be taken to create awareness among people of cyber crimes and due action would be taken on such complaints. Steps would be taken to reduce the gap between the general public and police personnel, he further said.

The Union and State governments provided support in several ways to the needy people, but private institutions should also extend help, especially to those requiring medical assistance, said C.P. Rajkumar, Managing Director, Nalam Multispeciality Hospital, here on Saturday. Speaking at a function to honour Inspector General of Police V. Balakrishnan and neurologist S. Meenakshisundaram with C. Palaniappan Memorial Award for their contribution to society and Nalam Kappom medical adoption of Type-1 diabetic children, he said the governments implemented numerous welfare programmes, but the timely help by a private hospital or a doctor in the neighbourhood to the people in need would go a long way in safeguarding their lives.
