Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday suggested making the police forces more sensitive and training them in emerging technologies.

During the the 57th All-India Conference of Director Generals/ Inspector Generals of Police on 21st and 22nd January in New Delhi, the PM also emphasised on the importance of National Data Governance Framework for smoothening of data exchange across agencies.

The Prime Minister suggested that while police forces should leverage technological solutions and also further strengthen traditional policing mechanisms like foot patrols etc.

He also recommended repealing obsolete criminal laws and building standards for police organisations across states. He suggested prison reforms to improve jail management.

The PM also discussed strengthening of border as well as coastal security by organising frequent visits of officials.

Further, he emphasised on enhanced cooperation between state police and central agencies to leverage capabilities and share best practices.  He suggested replicating the model of the DGsP / IGsP Conference at the state/district levels for discussing emerging challenges and evolving best practices among their teams.
