NEW DELHI: In a unique effort to reach out to all 18 lakh policemen in the country, Prime Minister Narendra Modi is expected to send SMSes to each one of them on the coming Republic Day.
Modi will personally contact each of the policemen, from Director General of Police to constable, of all state police forces through SMSes and wish them on Republic Day.
The Prime Minister is said to have expressed his desire during the just concluded three-day DGPs conference held in Rann of Kutch in Gujarat, official sources said.
This will be perhaps for the first time a Prime Minister will directly reach out to all policemen across the country.
Modi said it was necessary to have a list of contact details of all policemen and asked the state DGPs to prepare the list before January 26 so that he could send the SMSes on Republic Day. (AGENCIES)
