The IGP, while congratulating the officers, charged them to see their promotion as a mark of additional responsibility and a call to rededicate themselves to their professional calling. He enjoined them to continue to carry out their duties diligently and in conformity with best practices and respect for the rights of the citizen.

Anyhow they want to do it.. what we want is sanity in the law enforcement system.

That is very good, at least to motivates them to police well

No matter what, the police still keeps crime away
