STEP AIMED AT BRINGING MORE EFFICIENCY IN POLICE WORKING: MAHAL

HOSHIARPUR, NOVEMBER 19 / NSB NEWS:

In compliance with the directives of DGP DInkar Gupta to implement the Posting and Transfer Policy of Punjab Police, as many as 337 police personnel of district Hoshiarpur have been transferred in the district. The police personnel have been transferred out of their home police stations as well as home sub-divisions so as to improve transparency and prevent biases in the working of police department.

Police personnel having more than three years of tenure in same police stations have also been transferred to other police units in order to increase their efficiency by assigning new tasks and to prevent any nexus in the region.

A thorough briefing of the newly transferred police personnel was also done by the SSP Navjot Singh Mahal in presence of SPs, DySPs in order to encourage them to perform at their best to prevent crime in Hoshiarpur. They were also told to instill confidence in general public and to enhance police-public relationships via Community Policing. Along with that, in order to increase the manpower at police station level and to ensure effective policing, 446 police personnel have been posted from non-essential duties to the police stations during the drive of “Human-resource audit” and “Back to Police Station” campaign.

Pertinently, after taking charge of SSP Hoshiarpur Mahal has laid emphasis on this drive with 783 transfers till date. The exercise will help in increasing professionalism in young recruits who have not completed their minimum required tenure in police stations and will help in early redressal of public grievances.
