Built at a cost of Rs 32 lakh by the OPGC in the campus of the district police office here, a training centre for police officers was inaugurated jointly by Jharsuguda district Collector Bibhuti Bhusan Patnaik and SP Umasankar Dash on Saturday.
The Collector said a man keeps learning till last day of his life, and there is no end to this process. Police officers should be efficient to deliver service to the public. The training centre would be helpful in providing efficient police service.
The SP said the training centre would go a long way in activating the police administration and increasing the overall efficiency of the officers. This centre would also be helpful in training mediapersons, industry personnel and judiciary, mines safety officers, NGOs and other stakeholders.
OPGC Director Alok Mukherjee expected that the training centre would no doubt increase the efficiency of police officers and ensure quality police administration.
The meeting was held under the chairmanship of senior OPGC official PK Patra. Besides, a workshop was held to increase the efficiency of police personnel which was attended by Dr Hara Prasanna Das and Kuheli Majumdar from the Human Research Centre, Bhubaneswar.
