Arunachal Pradesh home minister Bamang Felix on Thursday urged the police officers and personnel to clear the common misconception among the public that a police station is only a collection center or a place for punishment.
Felix, who was addressing the inauguration function of Doimukh police station’s new building, said, “If we want to have a peaceful environment and avoid law and order situation, we must make the people trust and have faith on us.”
The minister at the same time also urged the public to corporate with the police for maintaining a peaceful environment and to curb anti-social activities in the area.
“The police alone cannot control the law and order situation unless there is support from the public,” Felix said while adding that a police station is for reformation and should be treated as a rehabilitation center for the greater interest of the wrong doers.
