The UPCOP app in Uttar Pradesh is functioning as a 'digital police station,' offering 27 services including online FIR registration, downloading FIR copies, and reporting lost items. Launched in 2019, the app has seen over 5 million downloads and significantly reduced the time for services like character and tenant verification. Officials state that technology integration has made policing more people-centric, transparent, and accountable, decreasing the need for citizens to visit physical police stations.
