KSRP's ADGP organised mass de-addiction campaign for personnel

Bengaluru: The Additional Director General of Police (ADGP) of the Karnataka State Reserve Police (KSRP) Alok Kumar had in the past 3 months organised a mass de-addiction campaign for personnel to improve the efficiency of the police force.

About 150 police officials with high alcohol addicition and about 400 with medium alcohol addiciton were sent to de-addicition centres at Bengaluru and Mangaluru in batches.

Those with low to moderate alcohol consumption were spared.

The decision to send the personnel to de-addciiton centres was made after no changes were seen in their drinking habits even after repeated notices.
