Strengthening the police

Police is the only law enforcement agency that is always in direct contact with the people. However, recent incidents of violence and terrorism have revealed that there is a strong need to strengthen our police. We have already seen that terrorist groups have outnumbered police on a number of occasions.

Although, efforts are underway to impart anti-terrorist trainings to new police recruits, but they should also be well equipped and follow-ups should be conducted to check if the trainings are consistent and yielding results. Terrorism has gone to a new level.

The incident that claimed the life of former Governor of Punjab was a cruel reminder that radical elements are present everywhere.

So not only there should be a screening process in place, but it should also be conducted on regular basis to ensure that this problem can be contained.
