Goa Chief Minister Manohar Parrikar on Wednesday announced in the legislative Assembly that he would trim his security cover by doing away with the escort policemen as other departments of police are facing shortage of personnel.
“I have decided to revert them (escort policemen) to the main pool,” Parrikar said on floor of the House. The Chief Minister also said that around 30 police personnel would be transferred from VIP security duty to the main pool and there services will be utilised in departments like Traffic Police, which is currently facing the shortage.
