On the occasion, Police Chief Kunwar said the Home Ministry and the police leadership were committed to further reforming and strengthening the police institution, urging the entire police mechanism to perform and deliver more efficiently.
"It is inexcusable if any police employee is found indulging in unprofessional business," he warned, stressing that police employees should act aggressively against smuggling, cross-border crime and the revenue leakage.
