Director-General of Police M Mahendar Reddy said here on Friday that the year 2020 was dedicated to the safety of women and road safety.
Participating as a chief guest in a cake cutting ceremony organised by the staff posted at the offices of senior police officers in connection with New Year, he said priority would be given to prevent accidents and to ensure safety of women.
The State police personnel would also take part in the ‘Each One Teach One’ programme launched by the State government. It was also decided to educate 20 illiterates from each district under the
programme.
Priority was accorded for the welfare of the police in the State and necessary steps were being taken in this regard.
Meanwhile, Reddy appreciated Siddipet police constable Srisailam for donating blood to a pregnant woman at Siddipet government hospital. Srisailam was posted at the hospital where he came to know that the woman needed ‘A’ positive blood.
Srisailam came forwarded and donated blood. Complimenting the constable on Twitter, Reddy said the job of the police force was service oriented and that the constable had proved it.
