From the Editor 16
I convey my best wishes and warm greetings to all themembers of Odisha Police on the occasion of 83rd OdishaPolice Formation Day. On this occasion I also rememberwith respect and gratitude the contributions of our formerleaders and members of Odisha Police in its long andglorious journey from the year 1936. Along with theincrease in its size over last eight decades, our duties,responsibilities and challenges have gone upexponentially during this period. I can say with satisfaction and pride that Odisha Policehas been able to overcome these challenges successfully.
But, new challenges emerge as we get better off the old ones. We should adapt ourselvesto the fast changing world, equip ourselves with new skills and develop capacity tomake use of technology in all spheres, particularly for the service delivery to the people.In this direction we are developing user friendly mobile phone applications for thebenefit of the general public. Other than technology, I have been emphasizing on “teamwork” and “transparency” in our functioning.
In the recently held Senior Police Officers’ Conference, several important mattersincluding the issue of enhancing the capacity of police stations were deliberated.Ultimately, we are judged by our efficiency at the level of the police station. We willdevelop one police station in each district as a “model police station” in terms ofinfrastructure, manpower and behavioral aspects. We hope that these police stationswill become role model for others especially in respect of delivery of service to thepeople.

From the Editor...
– Satyajit Mohanty,ADGP (Provisioning), Cuttack
by SP, Sambalpur in the groupwhatsapp struck a note withme. I thought it worth sharingin the limited space that I’vethe privilege to pen my thoughts.The picture is that of a trafficconstable helping a differentlyabled woman cross the road. Itwas candid and was taken bya journalist friend who sharedit with SP.
In the recently concluded senior PoliceOfficers’ Conference I was deliberatingon attitudinal changes required forpeople friendly policing and gave theexample of Kerala traffic cops oftenseen helping elderly people and childrencross the busy traffic junctions. It is acommon sight on busy Kerala roads.And I contrasted it with my ownexperience while shooting a similarsequence for the Odisha police themesong that was to be edited later to fitinto the lyrics. After several cuts andpersonal briefing to the police personswho were selected to act the sequence,the crew had to work overtime to get afive second edited version. The reason;our men escorted the elderly person onthe frame as if he was on the wrongside of law.I am sure that the traffic cop ofSambalpur has never been trained onstuff like attitudinal change but he isa man with ample empathy. Heunderstands the difference between aniron grip and a helping hand. Is henot a role model?
