With the Punjab Police intensifying its efforts to combat drug menace in the state, the Kapurthala district police force is facing additional strain with the retirement of 16 personnel on May 30. The development has come at a time when the department is already grappling with an acute shortage of manpower, adding further pressure on an overstretched force.

The retired officials include one Deputy Superintendent of Police (DSP), four Inspectors, eight Assistant Sub-Inspectors (ASIs), one Head Constable and a Class IV employee. Many of them had served the Punjab Police for decades, contributing significantly to crime prevention, public safety and anti-drug operations across the district.

To honour their dedicated service, the Kapurthala Police held a formal farewell ceremony, where tributes were paid by colleagues and senior officers. Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Gaurav Toora praised the outgoing personnel for their integrity, professionalism and years of tireless service to society. He emphasised that their contributions had left a lasting mark on the department and the communities they served, and wished them good health and peace in retirement.
