New Delhi: <\/span>Delhi Police<\/a> has intensified its verification drive for domestic staff following a series of recent high-profile crimes involving unverified workers, including a case in southeast Delhi where a bureaucrat\u2019s daughter was sexually assaulted and murdered by an unverified domestic help.In another incident, an unverified help and his associates\u2014who had taken turns working in a household in Golf Links\u2014allegedly held the family hostage and looted cash and valuables, underscoring the risks posed by inadequate verification.According to the latest data released by police on Friday, 20,004 verification forms for domestic helps and tenants were processed across the city in 2025. The pace has picked up sharply this year, with 9,635 forms already submitted by March 31, 2026.This marks a significant rise in monthly submissions\u2014from an average of around 1,667 forms per month in 2025 to over 3,211 per month in the first quarter of 2026\u2014indicating increased compliance amid heightened enforcement and awareness drives.The data also indicates a decline in violations. In 2025, police detected 6,352 cases under Section 223 (disobedience to an order duly promulgated by a public servant) of the BNS out of 20,004 forms submitted, reflecting a violation rate of about 31.7%. In contrast, in the first three months of 2026, 1,323 violations were identified from 9,635 applications, bringing the rate down to 13.7%.Police said the reduction suggests greater awareness among residents and possibly smoother verification procedures. However, authorities stressed that enforcement remains strict. Every violation detected has resulted in prosecution.\u201cIn all districts, directions have been issued to intensify verification of domestic help and tenants,\u201d said Devesh Chandra Srivastava, special commissioner of police (crime and perception management & media cell). He urged residents and RWAs to approach local police stations or use the Delhi Police website to complete verification and strengthen safety norms.Police said comprehensive background checks serve as a vital deterrent to theft, assault, and organised crime, yet many residents continue to skip this mandatory step due to negligence or lack of awareness.To improve compliance, police are conducting outreach programmes with Resident Welfare Associations (RWAs) and organising verification camps in residential colonies. Forms are being distributed locally, and door-to-door advisories are being issued to encourage prompt submission of Aadhaar details and photographs for background checks.<\/div>\n
