Chairing the meeting, DGP Kapur emphasized the importance of advanced weapons training for police officers to control violent crimes and ensure public safety. He directed police officials to select young officers in their districts and form batches for advanced weapons training. "It is crucial to equip our officers with high-quality training to handle weapons effectively in appropriate situations," Kapur stated. He also instructed that top-notch trainers be selected for this task, with the Police Headquarters designing the courses. Officers will receive both weapons training and soft skills training during the program, which is set to begin on October 21 and will last 7-10 days. Training centers at HPA Madhuban and PTC Sunaria have been selected for this purpose.

Tackling Immigration Fraud with Stringent Measures

Addressing the issue of immigration fraud, DGP Kapur urged officers to take firm action against agents who deceive people under the pretext of sending them abroad. He stressed the need to break the nexus of fraudulent agents, particularly in 5-6 districts where this issue is prevalent. "We must act on all complaints and ensure that cases of fraud are dealt with according to the SOPs," Kapur said, highlighting that under new laws, the properties of those found guilty of such fraud can be attached.

Direct Monitoring of Cases by SPs

DGP Kapur directed Superintendents of Police to personally monitor cases of immigration fraud, focusing on visa scams. He emphasized that such cases can have devastating consequences for young people, often leading them into criminal activities abroad. The DGP stressed the importance of thorough investigations and proper police action, including regular monitoring of key indicators like the number of FIRs lodged, criminals arrested, and amounts recovered. He highlighted the provisions in the new criminal laws allowing for the attachment of fraudsters' properties involved in sending candidates abroad.

Progress on Anti-Drug Campaign Reviewed

The meeting also reviewed the progress of the anti-drug campaign across Haryana. DGP Kapur instructed Superintendents of Police to set clear goals to make villages and wards drug-free by December 31. "We need to ensure that drugs do not enter our communities and that those addicted receive proper treatment," he said. Kapur directed officers to form teams in each police station to lead the anti-drug efforts, conducting door-to-door visits and ensuring rehabilitation for those affected by drugs. The DGP stressed that both drug prevention and treatment must be pursued with equal focus to achieve a drug-free society.
