The recent report of Goa’s new police recruits being subjected to harsh training in Delhi surely needs the attention of authorities here.
According to the report, the new recruits claimed their stay, food and the surrounding area was unhygienic with many suffering from food poisoning.
Top police officials say it is part of the training and the new batch should be ready to face different situations.
The basic idea here is the cops should be fit and healthy to face difficult situations. Training is needed but it could be more humane. The police should ensure that they have a good physique as they are law enforcers.
Generally one can see our police using lathis to deal with protests. They should be given proper equipment.
All said and done, we only hope all goes well with the training in Delhi and our Goan brothers come back with all the knowledge and expertise that is needed for a policeman.
