PM Modi Interacts With Indian Police Service Probationers In Hyderabad: Highlights

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday interacted with IPS officers via video conferencing during the ''Dikshant Parade'' of IPS probationers at Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel National Police Academy in Hyderabad via video conferencing and talked about the stress that officials go through while doing their duties.

The Prime Minister also urged the schools to prepare write-ups telling how cops on duty amid the pandemic had helped the common man in crisis.

"Workload and pressure are on everyone even on the farmers. This is a part of life and this is not something which cannot be managed. If we understand our needs and responsibilities in detail, we can manage things smoothly. In your profession, unexpected events occur and you have to be always ready. Regular training is also vital. I urge you all that when you go out for doing duty, try to meet people or even teachers who can talk on such topics. This will help you in leading a stress-free life. Also, if you practice yoga and ''Pranayama'' done with will power, you will never be stressed and always be happy," he said.

The Prime Minister also talked about improving the image of the police officers in front of the public and urged schools to write about the instances telling that how cops on duty amid pandemic have helped the common man in crisis.

Here are the Highlights on PM Modi's address:

• PM Modi addresses young IPS officers via video conferencing during the ‘Dikshant Parade' of IPS probationers at Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel National Police Academy in Hyderabad.
• I was looking forward to meeting you all in person, but due to COVID-19 restrictions that did not happened. But I am sure that in times to come, I will get an opportunity to meet many of you.
• Yours is a profession where the factor of encountering something unexpected is very high, and you all must be alert and prepared for this.
• There is a higher degree of stress, and which is why it is important to keep speaking with your near and dear ones. From time to time, maybe on a day off, meet someone like a teacher or someone whose advice you value.
