Three Aspects In Assam Police’s Journey Towards Change Are Training, Reward, And Punishment: GP Singh
“The three important aspects in Assam Police’s journey towards change are training, reward, and punishment,” GP Singh said in a statement.
“By bringing these three aspects together, the public of Assam will receive the active cooperation of a changed, professional, and people-friendly police force,” he added.
GP Singh did not specify the reasons for the dismissals or retirements, however in May, he had said that an exercise to get rid of “deadwood” from the police force would be undertaken in all of its organisations and wings.
