Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann handed out appointment letters to 1,746 newly recruited constables in Punjab, marking a significant boost to the state police force.
Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann officially handed over appointment letters to 1,746 newly selected constables during a ceremony attended by senior police officials. The recruitment drive, announced earlier this year, aimed to strengthen law‑and‑order capabilities across the state.
The constables, who cleared rigorous physical and written tests, will be inducted into the Punjab Police over the coming weeks. Their deployment is expected to address staffing gaps in both urban and rural districts, enhancing response times and community policing.
State authorities said the addition of nearly two thousand personnel reflects the government's commitment to public safety and follows a broader strategy to modernise the police force. Training for the new recruits will commence shortly, with a focus on modern policing techniques and citizen interaction.
The ceremony underscored the administration's focus on job creation and security, two key priorities for the electorate ahead of upcoming local elections.
