It is very painful for the police to take action against police personnel, that situation should not be brought up. Self-criticism is very necessary. There is a lot to be done for change. Let's all do it together. I hope you all understand that the government and the people have entrusted us with the responsibility," DGP said. He said that all the police personnel are expected to attend orientation classes in the next two months. Changes should be visible at every police station. Those who come to the police station should be well received.
