Home Minister Narottam Mishra said that the people living in villages and slums should work to strengthen the concept of Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam.

Social harmony is our highest priority. Home Minister Dr. Mishra was addressing the police officers at the inauguration of the two-day seminar "Sparsh" on "Sensitivity towards Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes".

He said that to make the society aware, use the same media by which they are being misled. Organizations like sports competitions for social harmony and mutual harmony in villages and hamlets will also be beneficial.

Director General of Police Sudhir Kumar Saxena said in the inaugural session that it is the responsibility of all of us to provide social justice as per the preamble of the Constitution. The Constitution is paramount, our inspiration. It is very important for social harmony to give the environment to 37 percent of the people of the region to work with freedom and fearlessness and to protect their rights.

He said that the benefits of the schemes were given to the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes people at the grassroots level without any temptation, pressure or fear. In-depth knowledge of legal provisions is necessary for this.

Additional Director General of Police Rajesh Gupta said that the state government is sensitive towards the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes. The challan rate of registered crimes in the state is 99 percent. The conviction rate is also 77 percent, which is the highest in the country.
