Hyderabad Police Will Begin Using New Mobile Numbers on August 1st:

All cellphone numbers for the Hyderabad City Police, who have been using cellular services for official communication for a number of years, are about to change as a result of a change in service provider.

The city police earlier subscribed to the central government’s Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited, but now looked at other options as BSNL did not meet the current requirements. Officials claimed that BSNL’s service had several flaws, including frequent call dropouts, connection problems and very poor mobile data, and now the force is shifting to Airtel. Additionally, several unit officers complained to Director General of Police M. Mahender Reddy regarding BSNL connectivity.

 Police’s New Series Will Begin With The Numbers

According to officials, a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Airtel has been struck with a better plan at half the cost, and the City Police will switch to the new service provider by gradually replacing the current numbers with new sets of numbers. Hyderabad Police’s new series will begin with the numbers 87126-60-XXX and 87126-61-XXX. For the convenience of the general public and simple identification, officials indicated that the last three digits in these two series are put in a logical order.
