When in need,  people look up to us for support, help, lending our ears to their problems, stories. Likewise, we also look up to them for suggestions and guidance. Our podcast 'Kissa Khaki Ka' takes our relationship to the next level where we share our stories with people with an open heart. It helps grow more mutual trust and bonding, thereby, enabling better policing.The Capital's police is new- media savvy even as we are available through traditional communications channels. We are ever ready to rise to the new age communications needs.”

The first episode of the podcast was aired on  16th January 2022. It discussed at length a school run by police constable Than Singh for slum children near Lal Qila, New Delhi, as a part of the eye-opening series. 

Every week, a short story will be narrated through this podcast story. With 'Delhi Police Week' coming in February, the new initiative of the podcast promises to bring police and citizens closer and further strengthen their bond.

I don't understand any of it. We are all born from the same soil, grew up within the same boundaries, and sang the national anthem of the same country and yet, our police and our army seems to have taken birth and evolved from a land that must have been more divine, more nourishing because if not, I do not understand this unique and superior sense of passion and dedication towards their jobs and their country.

While we complained and threw tantrums over being locked inside during the pandemic, and defied laws as a part of our "meltdowns" that were meant to protect us, our army and our police forces made sure we were protected not just from external factors but also from ourselves. They were high on alert, away from their families but still motivated and inspired as ever to celebrate in solidarity for our country. Kudos! Thank you #KissaKhakiKa and Dr #Vartikananda for this #podcast, the nation should be aware of the happy sacrifices that police forces make for them. #delhipolice #दिल्ली_पुलिस #RepublicDay2022
