BE EXTRA SENSITIVE IN CRIME CASES AGAINST WOMEN: VP ASKS POLICE

Highlighting the importance of a safe and enabling environment for women empowerment, Vice President M. Venkaiah Naidu called upon the police forces to be extra sensitive in matters relating to crimes against women.

Addressing the police personnel after presenting Presidential Police Colours to Tamil Nadu Police in Chennai on Sunday, Naidu said, “Women form half of our population but a lot still remains to be done to provide them equal opportunities on various fronts.”

Expressing concern over the increasing incidents of cybercrime and other modern-day offences such as online frauds and transboundary crimes, the VP exhorted our police forces to skill and equip themselves to deal with these 21st-century crimes in an effective and speedy manner.

“Upgradation of skills, improvement of infrastructure facilities, and change of attitude of the Police force are key elements in the modernisation of the Police,” said Naidu.

He observed that the role of the police is of paramount importance in a rapidly changing socio-economic environment.

“One of the primary reasons behind the economic progress of the State is the role of the state police in maintaining public order and social harmony, which is essential for attracting investment, growth and development in the State,” added Naidu.
