JP Lauds Police For Nabbing Terrorists
The police attract a lot of flak when they fail to prevent a terrorist attack, but sometimes succeed in thwarting terrorist designs by staking even their lives, he said.
Lok Satta Party national president Dr. Jayaprakash Narayan on Saturday congratulated the Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu police on preventing terrorist strikes by taking into custody suspected terrorists at Puttoor in Chittoor district.
"The police attract a lot of flak when they fail to prevent a terrorist attack. But in cases, they succeed in thwarting terrorist designs by staking even their lives. Nearly 1,000 police personnel die every year in our country in the discharge of their duties," he observed.
JP demanded that the police force be modernized at a fast pace with the provision of latest technology and equipment, better transport and quality training. "The police should be provided autonomy, and be insulated from political interference," he said.
He said that the police should be strengthened to ensure safety and security for citizens and the maintenance of the rule of law. (INN)
