Union Home Minister inaugurates new building of Central Detective Training School
In the function he congratulated the BPR&D for the well-constructed campus with state of the art training facilities.
The Union Minister stressed that training of police personnel needs a thrust in a big way and hoped that such institutions will help to augment the training capacity and quality.
He said that police need to stress more on investigation of cyber-crime, cellular and computer forensics, and investigation of crimes against women.
He referred to Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s directions to digitize most of the police training content and to adopt distant and e-learning systems in order to train the large number of police personnel being recruited every year.
He expressed his concern at the lack of pre-promotional and post-promotional courses for police personnel. With promotions, the duties and responsibilities change and it is imperative that they be re-trained accordingly.
The Union Home Minister emphasized that in a democratic set up, the police need to deal with public in a more sensitive and rational way.
He stressed that police personnel need to be equipped with appropriate soft skills, communication and negotiation skills in order to deal with public expressing the difference of opinion or their demands in a democratic set-up.
These trainings, he stressed, need to be taken up in a big way so that police can discharge more effectively and efficiently while dealing with public.
This would also help in the day-to-day dealing with public and improve the image of police.
