LAYING the foundation stone of an exemplary Police officials to win the confidence of the public. The police force is undoubtedly the backbone of civil administration, but unfortunately, owing to corruption mingled with terror, the general public is afraid of getting anywhere near police officials.
During the British rule over the Indian sub-continent, the police were employed to terrorise the people of this region so as to keep a tight hold on the Government. But even after independence, the police continued to be an alien force. The disease has gone so chronic that mere advice can have no effect upon the old police officials who consider "Danda" and "Lathi" as the only resort for the free nation. If we are serious in reorganising the entire structure of this department, we shall have to retire all those old officials who can by no means be changed. As compensation such officials should be paid full pension. The in-service training courses should be conducted regularly so as to impart a new spirit to the young officials. The Inspector General Police Punjab is definitely sincere in making positive reforms in the police department. But favourable results can only accrue if the curriculum for training is entirely changed and the police officials are induced to imbibe a purely Islamic spirit. Strict action should be takedn against all those officials who resort to inhuman ways and terrorise the gentle people. Professional and regular criminals should be treated differently from the persons who were never required by this agency and miserably involved in baseless cases for the first time.
