Cops must be friendly with people, says Governor ESL Narasimhan
Hyderabad: Governor E.S.L Narasimhan on Sunday said that people-friendly policing could change the perspective of the masses towards the police, and the TS police was doing everything to achieve the aim.
The Governor was flagging-off the first Indian Police Martyrs Memorial Run at the People’s Plaza. “Normally people look at police in a different way but the Telangana police would like to change the perspective of people by executing people-friendly policing.”
Over 6,000 people participated in the first run of its kind organised to remember the sacrifices of police personnel, officials said. The run, which was held in 2 km, 5 km and 10 km categories, was planned by the police to build community engagement.
Congratulating the police for the step, he said, “People-friendly policing initiatives will be taken up to district and sub-divisional levels for more transparency.”
