Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan has said that the face of Madhya Pradesh Police is one of sensitivity, bravery, patriotism and discipline. Never let it get weaken, this is the asset which has earned Madhya Pradesh Police a special place in the country. Today the youths who are wearing the police uniform, it is not an ordinary uniform.
This uniform is for the security of the country and the state, to destroy the criminals, to give strength to the weak, to crush the criminals and to assist the gentlemen. Never forget its limits and never let it get tarnished. It is your responsibility to maintain the honour of your mother’s and Mother India's milk. Exhorting new constables, move forward on the path of your duty with enthusiasm, passion and zeal.

Constables of Madhya Pradesh Police presented the Madhya Pradesh Anthem.

Police work is not just a job, it is also a pledge of patriotism and public service. Madhya Pradesh Police has a glorious history. Madhya Pradesh Police had a remarkable contribution in driving out the Kabalis (tribes) in Kashmir, action in Hyderabad and liberation of Goa. Madhya Pradesh Police has played an effective role in suppressing anti-national activities taking place in any corner of the country. Be it freeing the state from the terror of dacoits or curbing naxalite activities, the Madhya Pradesh Police has discharged its national responsibilities by staying on the path of duty. It is the fortune of the new constables that they are becoming a part of this glorious tradition.
Chouhan said that the image of the new constables will be built according to the work done by them. Our character is our asset. Madhya Pradesh Police means gentler than flower for gentlemen and tougher than thunderbolt for wicked and criminals. As a police constable it is your duty to be aware of all the activities of your beat and the people there. New constables should avoid befriending those indulging in illegal activities in your beat, this caution and vigilance is necessary for the discharge of your duty.
