Serve people with honesty and compassion, Revanth Reddy tells probationary DSPs

Hyderabad, Nov 10 (UNI) Telangana Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy on Tuesday urged newly appointed probationary Deputy Superintendents of Police (DSPs) to discharge their duties with honesty, integrity and compassion, stating that the future of Telangana over the next three decades would depend significantly on their performance.
Participating in an interactive session with probationary DSPs at MCRHRD Institute, the Chief Minister said the police force was often the first point of contact for people facing difficulties and advised officers to listen patiently to victims and understand their problems before taking action. He presented awards to outstanding trainees and unveiled the 'Crime Scene Forensic Handbook'.
Revanth Reddy said the government had ensured transparency in the recruitment of 112 DSPs despite several legal and political challenges. He recalled that the government had restructured the Telangana Public Service Commission (TGPSC) on the lines of UPSC to restore public confidence in recruitment. Out of 563 Group-I posts notified, 562 candidates had joined, he added.
He said the government had even approached the Supreme Court to protect the DSP appointments and successfully secured the recruitment process. He advised the newly appointed officers never to forget their backgrounds and the responsibility associated with their positions.
Highlighting emerging challenges in policing, the Chief Minister said cybercrime, drug abuse, traffic management and food safety required specialised attention and modern technological support. He said the government had established the Eagle Force to combat the drug menace and introduced specialised systems to tackle emerging challenges.
He also emphasised physical fitness, continuous learning and professional development, adding that the government was willing to send DSPs abroad for advanced training if necessary.
Chief Minister's Advisor Shivadhar Reddy, MCRHRD Vice-Chairperson Shanta Kumari, DGP C.V. Anand and senior police officials attended the programme.
