He said, some of the members of various criminal gangs are outside the jails and on their instruction, gangsters inside the jail are committing crimes.

"We have identified few criminals who have been operating from the jail and directing to such offences," Asthana informed.

Asthana further asserted that all the gangsters who are active in the city or outside the city will be taken into task not only by the Delhi police but by the state police of the neighbouring states.

"We are committed to putting a curb and eliminating gangsters. It will take some time but I assure you this action will go on continuously until we are satisfied that all the gangsters are behind the bars," said the Delhi Police Commissioner.

He further said, "Since my joining, we have taken a stand that whatever the organised crime is happening in the city should not happen. The persons who are associated with the gangsters should be held and appropriate and legal action should be taken against them."

In the process of busting the gangster's group, a large number of gangsters have been arrested and most of them are in judicial custody, Asthana added. (ANI)
