Hyderabad, September 2024 – In a grand ceremony held at the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel National Police Academy (SVPNPA), 207 officer trainees of the 76th batch of the Indian Police Service (IPS) completed their training, marking their official induction into the service. The Passing Out Parade was a moment of pride and achievement, not only for the young probationers but also for the nation they are set to serve.

The Hon’ble Minister of State for Home Affairs, Nityanand Rai, graced the event as the chief guest, inspecting the Dikshant Parade and taking the salute. The parade was led by Achyut Ashok, IPS (P), from the Kerala Cadre, symbolizing the discipline and dedication that these future officers will bring to their roles. Nityanand Rai, in his address, inspired the probationers, reminding them of the immense responsibility that lies ahead in maintaining law and order, upholding justice, and serving the people.

Among the 207 probationers, 19 are from foreign police forces, including officer trainees from Bhutan and the Maldives, and 58 are women, marking the increasing diversity in the police service.

The ceremony was also a celebration of individual achievements, with several probationers recognized for their exceptional performance during the course of their training:
