His tenure in Gadchiroli is particularly notable for combining aggressive anti-Naxal operations with community policing initiatives. He played a key role in the ‘Police Dada Lora Khidki’ programme, which received recognition at the FICCI Smart Policing Awards 2021. The initiative helped deliver government schemes, vocational training, and welfare benefits to nearly five lakh residents, including 2.7 lakh people in remote areas.
