Representative image COIMBATORE: The rural police are preparing a proposal to set up a new police station at Neelambur on the outskirts of the city soon. There are also plans to bring Kovilpalayam police station under Periyanaickenpalayam subdivision from Karumathampatti subdivision for administrative purposes. Neelambur village panchayat presently falls in Sulur police station limits. The Sulur police have to travel at least 8km to reach the village whenever crimes are reported there. Since Sulur police station is already struggling with manpower shortage, superintendent of police (SP) S Selvanagarathinam had recently conducted a meeting with other police officials to discuss about setting up a new police station manned by a sub-inspector of police at Neelambur.
