Police Stations should become Temples of Justice: Rajnath
Addressing the Passing Out Parade at the Sardar Vallavbhai Patel National Police Academy (SVPNPA) in Hyderabad, Rajnath Singh said the police is the most visible face of the State and it has been institutionalised to create a sense of security among citizens.
The police officers should be a mix of ‘Half Steel’ and ‘Half Wax’ and they should work towards enhancing their leadership qualities, he added.
Union Home Minister remarked that the Investiture Ceremony is being held on Sardar Patel`s 139th birth anniversary after a gap of ten years.
“It should always be held on Sardar Patel’s jayanti,” he added.
Rajnath Singh highlighted Sardar Patel`s role in uniting India.
“Had Sardar Patel not been India’s first Home Minister, integrating Hyderabad would have been difficult,” he said.
On the occasion, the Home Minister inspected the parade.
He also inaugurated the new Administrative Office Building at the SVPNPA and laid wreath at the IPS memorial in the SVPNPA campus.
