''The complaints like accidents, terrorists attack, corruption, vehicle thefts, strangers, criminal activities, ragging, women harassment will be entertained through SMS besides many others and swift action will be taken as per the nature of the complaint,'' the IGP added.
The police officer said that this is kind of service is second in the country here as it was earlier introduced in Hyderabad.
