Crime and Criminals Tracking Network and Systems (CCTNS) Project

The Crime and Criminal Tracking Network and Systems (CCTNS) project launched in 2009, is a mission mode project under the National, e-Governance Plan being implemented by the Ministry of Home Affairs.

  • The project aims at creating a comprehensive and integrated system and a nation-wide networked solution for connecting more than 15,000 Police Stations and nearly 6,000 higher offices in 28 States and 7 UTs of the country for sharing of real-time crime and criminal information.
  • The project has been conceptualized based on the principle of ‘Centralized Planning and Decentralized Implementation’.
  • A Core Application Software (CAS) was developed with common definitions, scheme and specifications at the Central level which would be handed over to the States/UTs for State specific customization.
