It has come up in the premises of the Lashkar police station and is aimed at giving children in conflict with law as well as minor victims a friendly environment, officials said.
It was inaugurated by IIT Kanpur Director Dr Abhay Karandikar who tweeted that the "child-friendly police station is an innovative concept in the direction of preventing juvenile crimes and children reforms."
"Pune police have worked with Hope for Children Foundation to set up this. Congratulations Pune police for this unique initiative," he further tweeted.
