The LG had Wednesday tweeted that the Delhi Police was doing a praiseworthy job despite challenges. At the DCPs' conference at the Delhi Police headquarters, Saxena had said that the recent Kanjhawla hit-and-drag incident and the Shraddha Walkar murder case exhibit a "glaring lacuna" in policing at the field level. The LG had also flagged a host of other issues, including corruption, high-handedness of police and investigation loopholes.
