Home Minister Amit Shah has advised Indian Police Service probationers to avoid social media and not chase after publicity. He was addressing probationary officers of the 72nd IPS batch through an online meet, said a statement released by the Home Ministry.

According to the statement, Shah said “communication and sensitivity” is necessary to improve the image of the police, and so there is a need to sensitize all police personnel and increase public contact. He also asked them to be sensitive towards the concerns of the poor, Dalits and tribal people.

“There are allegations of no action and extreme action against the police. …The police should avoid these and move towards just action… Just action means natural action and the police should understand the law and do the right thing. Therefore, police officers of the level of Superintendent of Police and Deputy Superintendent of Police should go to tehsils and villages and meet people and stay overnight,” Home Minister was quoted as saying in the release.

Mr. Shah also advised against seeking publicity and use of social media. Addressing the meet he said, “Officers of All India Services, especially IPS officers, should stay away from publicity. The urge to seek publicity hinders work… Although it is difficult to stay away from social media in the present times, police officers should stay away from it and focus on their duties. Before leaving the police academy, all of you should take a vow that every day you will make a note in your diary whether the work you have done was done only for the sake of publicity.”
