ܫPrime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday lamented that hardly any reforms were carried in the security apparatus of the country post-Independence despite the need for it.
♏He said that common people's perception, especially of the police force, that it is better to stay away from them, needs to be changed.
🐟Modi was addressing the convocation ceremony of the Rashtriya Raksha University (RRU) near here after inaugurating its new building.
𒊎"Post-Independence, there was a need to reform the security apparatus of the country, but hardly any reforms were carried out," Modi said while calling for an "overall training" of those involved in providing security.
🌌The prime minister said he has great expectations from the RRU.
"A college or university can contribute a lot in the development. I will tell you two instances - one pharmacy college was established in Ahmedabad by businessmen 60 years ago, which led Gujarat to be a leader in the pharma industry. Similarly, IIM was also established at that time, which is now giving world business leaders. In the same way, I expect RRU to create leaders in the security sector," Modi added. (With PTI inputs)
