Abstract
Police Station is the backbone of police working. Crime Prevention, Detection and maintaining Law and Order are the primary objects of a Police Station. Since most of the interaction between police and citizen takes place at the police station level. Our police station and Thana culture deter a common man to enter a police station.That’s why Front Desk Project (FDP) was initiated by the Government Pakistan to bridge the gap between police and public in 2015. FDP was aimed to bring educated people in police stations to deal with the complaint by using latest technology to make it easier to lodge a complaint and First Information Report (FIR). FDO is responsible to feed FIR and Challan in a system which is not transparent enough to gain complainant trust and there is no precise platform to improve it. Moreover, there is no direct link between police officers who are responsible to update all data regarding cases in PSRMS (Police Station Record Management System).To address these issues, this research purposed a block chain based transparent, auditable and secure PSRMS platform to avoid illegal exploitation of data and gains complainant’s trust. The proposed model is a proposed architecture of PSRMS, which comprehensively covers Challan data and FIR using smart contract, Meta mask. All action performed on the PSRMS platform is recorded in the database. The proposed model employs smart contracts and complete model to exchange information in sub departments of Police. Finally, Results from performance evaluation show the behavior of chain growing on each node and latency to replicate data on chain in real time.
