On Monday, President Droupadi Murmu engaged with probationary officers from the Indian Police Service (IPS) at Rashtrapati Bhavan, underscoring the critical role law enforcement plays in India’s progress. The probationers, from the 2023 batch, met with the President as part of their formal introduction to the nation’s highest office. President Murmu emphasized that maintaining law and order is essential to ensuring governance, justice, and protecting citizens’ rights.

Addressing the 76 regular recruits, the President highlighted the need for IPS officers to be both efficient and empathetic, as they represent the government to the public. She stated that “economic growth and social development hinge on upholding the rule of law. Without law and order, progress remains an empty promise.” Her comments come at a time when India is striving for enhanced socioeconomic growth.

President Murmu also praised the increasing representation of women in the IPS, noting that 54 of the 188 recruits were female, representing a notable 28.72 percent. She expressed hope that the presence of more women in the force would foster greater diversity and enhance community relations. This shift, she said, is transforming not just the role of women in law enforcement but also the very nature of policing.

In addition to the changing gender dynamics, Murmu addressed the growing complexity of modern policing, citing the rise in cybercrime. “As the world faces more cyber-crimes and cyber warfare, you must stay ahead with the latest technology,” she advised the recruits, urging them to be innovative in tackling modern challenges.

The President also focused on crimes against women, calling for sensitivity and empathy from officers handling such cases. She stressed that addressing societal prejudices requires dedicated commitment to justice, especially for vulnerable groups.

Murmu concluded her address by encouraging the probationers to prioritize their mental well-being, recommending yoga and relaxation techniques to manage the stress of their demanding roles. She reminded the officers that the ‘S’ in IPS stands for “service” and urged them to remain committed to serving both the state and its citizens.

The meeting left a lasting impact on the probationers, who expressed their determination to uphold the values discussed and contribute to a stronger, safer India.
