Police job is a challenge, says IGP

He was participating in the passing out parade of the 16th batch of Civil Police constables

IGP (Southern Range) Praveen Madhukar Pawar on Tuesday said that the job of police is not just for salary, but is meant for honour and sacrifice.

Participating in the passing out parade of the 16th batch of Civil Police constables, at DAR Police Parade ground in the city, he said, "Out of 47 people who have passed out today, 40 are more qualified for the constable posts. This would help them in their career in future."

"The attitude of the police constables should be equal towards all despite their economic status. A small mistake would have an impact on the entire police department. Do not be lethargic or get lured by corruption. Be honest. Most of the people have a bad opinion on the police department. This should be erased," he told the constables.

"Police job is a challenge for all. The recruits should believe that work is worship. Look after your parents and family and, be a model to the society," he said.

Superintendent of Police R Srinivas Gowda, Additional SP and Polie Training School Principal B N Nandini were present.
