In a significant move to strengthen law enforcement, Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann declared a new recruitment drive aimed at increasing the state police force to over 100,000 personnel.
This announcement coincided with the launch of a six-day certified investigator course for Punjab Police officers, designed to update their skills in tackling advanced criminal methods. The force, which has remained static at around 80,000 since 2000, is being expanded to meet new challenges.
Focusing on drug-related crimes, the course is crucial given recent procedural changes under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS). Officers will learn to navigate legal complexities, preserve evidence, and better understand the mindset of traffickers, ensuring that perpetrators face justice.
