DGP's mission — 'fighting fit' police force

Chairing a meeting with Commissioners of Police (CPs), SPs, and SHOs at the Police Headquarters, DGP OP Singh stated that the Haryana Police's working style will be transformed. The police must now become proactive, solution-oriented, coordinated, and citizen-centric. The living and working conditions of police personnel will also be improved.

The DGP directed officers of the Haryana Police Housing Corporation (HPHC) to ensure that, within two weeks, all police stations and posts are upgraded. Kitchens, washrooms, electrical wiring, and safety systems should be repaired and improved. He emphasised that every police station should be clean and organised. Engineers have been made personally responsible for visiting each station and submitting their reports.

“My objective is to keep the police fighting fit and in working order,” he said. “Mistakes during duty are natural, but indiscipline or misconduct will not be tolerated.”

If any criminal breaks the law, they will be sent behind bars as per legal procedure, but if anyone retaliates or attacks the police, they will receive an immediate and appropriate response.

The DGP directed that the families of martyred personnel must receive immediate help as per rules. A report on their status should be submitted every 15 days.

He instructed district officers to conduct regular field visits and interact with police personnel.

Singh said the police must remain active on social media and officers should monitor those spreading rumours or misinformation against the police.
