Chief Minister Virbhadra Singh said that the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) should not make further delay in ‘Gudia’ case and should nab the culprits at the earliest.

He said that the CBI urges for three months extra time to submit the status report in the case.

However, the High Court has ordered them to submit it in two weeks, he added.

He said that this while presiding over passing out parade of the 16th batch of police recruits at Daroh in District Kangra on Thursday.

Singh said few people unnecessarily flare up the issues for their political benefits.

“In recent infamous Kotkhai case, besides best efforts of the police to crack the same and nab the culprits, lots of hullabaloo was created by the few in opposition. I personally wrote to the Prime Minister to hand over the case to CBI, not because our police was inefficient, but taking into consideration the voice of the people”, he said.

The CM exhorted the police personnel of the state to work with dedication for evil free society and said that the main motive of the ‘Khaki’ was to eradicate evil from the society and deal with criminals strictly.

The image of the state as well as of the Police department rests on them, therefore the responsibility of protecting the property and people of the state rests on shoulders of the personnel he said, adding that they should ascertain that the anti-social elements do not creep in to disturb law and order and create fear in the society, he added.

He said that the batch, which passed out of training would certainly augment the trained manpower of state police.

The CM urged the police officers to be sensitive to the security needs of women and protect the poor and weaker section of the society, besides advising the passing out cadets to be more practical and professional for maintaining law, order and exercising patience while dealing with the people.
