Patiala, August 28

The Punjab Jail Training School, Patiala, organised the passing-out parade of a batch of jail officials today. As many as four deputy superintendents, five assistant superintendents from Himachal Pradesh, 85 warders and eight matrons completed their training from the institute.

ADGP (Jails) Arunpal Singh, the chief guest on the occasion, reviewed the parade. He asked the passing-out officers to make optimum use of the skills learnt.
