Detailed Solution

The above statement is False.
Station House Officer, commonly referred to as SHO, is the person in charge of the police station and not the Tehsildar. The SHO is a sub-inspector or an inspector. A station house officer may investigate crimes in India according to the law. He is in charge of preserving peace and order in his jurisdiction and overseeing the operation of the police station. The station cannot begin the investigation process without the FIRs that SHOs prepare. On the other hand, Tehsildar makes sure that the Patwaris' work is overseen, that records are kept accurately, and that land tax is collected.
The correct statement would be that the person in charge of the police station is called the Station House Officer/SHO.
