CP Sanjay Barve sent out the order around three days ago

Newly-appointed commissioner of police Sanjay Barve is coming for cops' afternoon naps. Upset with senior officers taking two to three-hour siestas, Barve has changed the visiting hours to 3 pm to 5 pm. Around three days ago, he passed an order asking officers to spare their afternoons to meet complainants and evenings for patrolling.

Many senior officers have implemented the order - which has come as a relief to visitors - by changing the hours displayed outside their police stations. Most cops seem to have taken it well, although they are defending their activities during those hours.
