New Delhi : Prime Minister Narendra Modi will attend the annual conference of DGPs and IGPs on January 7 & 8, 2018, at the BSF Academy at Tekanpur, Madhya Pradesh.
The DGPs conference is an annual event in which top police officers from all over the country share and discuss security related issues. PM Narendra Modi has addressed the conference earlier in Guwahati, Assam, in 2014, Dhordo, Rann of Kutch, Gujarat, in 2015 and National Police Academy, Hyderabad, in 2016, according to a PIB release.
During the last meeting, issues such as cross-border terrorism and radicalisation were discussed in detail. The Prime Minister emphasized the importance of leadership, soft skills and collective training. He specifically mentioned the importance of technology and human interface for the police force.
Holding the annual DGP conference outside the national capital is in line with Prime Minister’s vision that such conferences should be held across the country and not just confined to Delhi.
