In addition, an amount of ₹100 crore will be provided for the construction of residential buildings over three years. Five barracks will be constructed for SDRF personnel, and the Police Welfare Policy has been increased from ₹2.5 crore to ₹4.5 crore. The program paid tribute to the police personnel who sacrificed their lives in the state this year while on duty. Their families were honored with financial assistance. Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami said, “Our state borders not only international borders, but also those of Uttar Pradesh and Himachal Pradesh.” Our state is extremely sensitive geographically and strategically. Therefore, the role of our police personnel in maintaining peace and security in the state becomes even more important. The police system of any state is the backbone of its security and prosperity.
