Chandigarh, October 4– Haryana Chief Minister, Sh. Manohar Lal said that being a police officer extends beyond a mere profession; it is a matter of personal pride and a commitment to serve the nation.
While speaking as the Chief Guest during the passing out parade ceremony of Probationary Sub Inspectors at Haryana Police Academy Madhuban held today in Karnal, the Chief Minister’s address resonated with the notion that being a police officer transcends mere employment—it is a matter of personal honour and service to the nation. He called upon all police officers to remain unwavering in their dedication to public service and to collectively uphold the reputation of the entire police force. This, he emphasized, is their shared responsibility, and it should be carried with utmost pride.
Meanwhile, backing his inspiring words with concrete actions, the Chief Minister also made several pivotal announcements aimed at improving the welfare of police personnel who selflessly serve the public. These include doubling uniform allowance, boosting conveyance allowance, and better benefits for ASIs, SIs, and Inspectors.
The Chief Minister announced to increase in various allowances namely ration money, uniform allowance, kit maintenance allowance, commando diet money etc. given to all police employees by 2.5 times. For instance, Deputy Superintendents of Police (DSPs) will now get Rs 10,000 yearly in place of Rs. 5,000.
While the monthly conveyance allowance for constables and head constables has been increased significantly from Rs 120 to Rs 720.
He further announced that the ASIs, SIs, and Inspectors will also see an increase in their conveyance allowance, now set at Rs 1000 per month. Moreover, staff working at Haryana Police Training Centers will receive an additional 20 percent of their basic pay as a special allowance. This allowance will also be given to the employees who are on temporary duty as training staff in the training centres.
CM suggests a star-ranking system for police stations
Sh. Manohar Lal suggested a star-ranking system for police stations, similar to the one used for police officers, to increase public confidence in the force. He said in this, star ranking should be given including categories like operation of the police station, working environment, cleanliness, beautification, infrastructure etc. If a Police Station gets stars from 1 to 7 for different parameters, the more the confidence of the citizens will increase towards that police station.
He further shared the state government’s plan of establishing an enforcement bureau to combat various crimes including cases of power theft, illegal mining, excise crimes, illegal colonies, overloading etc. We have also opened cyber police stations to deal with cybercrime, said Sh. Manohar Lal.
