Thrissur (Kerala) [India], March 16 (ANI): Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan said that new force members should add more strength to the effort to free the country from the clutches of the drug mafia. He was speaking after accepting the salute at the passing out parade of 118 Sub-Inspector trainees of the 31st B batch of Kerala Police Academy in Ramavarmapuram, Thrissur, according to the press statement.
The drug mafia, which has been spreading uncontrollably in recent times, is destroying society regardless of age and gender. Synthetic drugs are dehumanising humans. The police and excise are effectively intervening against this. There is also an increase in cyber crimes that misuse modern technologies. The Chief Minister said that there should be a collective effort to combat and defeat these. He asked that the primary duty of the police is to maintain law and order, but people see the police as saviours and that new members of the force should be trained to perform high-level duties accordingly.
