Amarinder hails move to depoliticise Punjab Police

It was good the wisdom had finally dawned on the state government and it had realised the urgency to depoliticise the police, he said

Referring to reports that the Punjab Police was to transfer all its personnel with over three years of stay at a particular place, Amarinder said the move to depoliticise the department was welcome.

The Punjab Congress chief said he was hopeful the process would be taken to its logical conclusion.

He said the line of command in police must be ensured according to the rules.

The measure was long overdue and would go a long way in ensuring better police functioning, Amarinder said.
