Anantapur: The 28 newly recruited DSPs have successfully completed their training at the AP Police Academy (APPA) in Anantapur and are all set to participate in a Passing Out Parade on Monday.
They went through rehearsals on Sunday at the Police Training Centre (PTC) ground in Anantapur on Sunday.
Home minister Taneti Vanitha and DGP Rajendranath Reddy will be chief guests on the occasion, PTC principal Venkatrami Reddy said.
This is the third batch of DSPs who are passing out from APPA after the state’s bifurcation. The academy was earlier located in Hyderabad, but the entire set-up has gone to Telangana after the state got divided.
Andhra Pradesh is yet to have a full-fledged police academy. APPA is temporarily functioning from the Anantapur PTC.
The state government has not yet finalised the location for setting up its permanent police academy. It will be set up either in Anantapur or Mangalagiri. About 90 acres of land has been identified near Kurugunta in Anantapur district for the academy.
