Visit the website of your city police or district police or state police, as the case may be. You can easily get contact details of the police station covering your area, as also the contact details of the senior officers of your area (such as DCP or ACP or the SP). You may contact them on phone. Or, better still, go and meet the concerned police officers at the police station or their offices. Give them the information that you have while requesting them not to reveal your identity and other personal details. Generally, the police officers would not reveal the identity of the informant / source person who provides them information, more so when a specific request is made in this regard.
Alternatively, you may also provide information to the Police Control Room (such as at the phone number 100 if it is operational in your area, or whatever other phone number they have) by phone. The advantage of giving the information to police control room is that they record each and every information provided to them and also the action taken by them (such as directing the concerned police station or police mobile van to the spot). This would ensure that at least some action is taken on the basis of the information provided by you to the police.
