Bollywood often portrays policemen in negative and corrupt roles. However, the reality is far from the truth. Policemen these days not only keep crime in check but frequently go out of their way to help the ones in need. From singing songs to educate students about drug abuse to taking care of babies while their mothers write an exam, our security forces have set an example for the world time and again!
This Police Constable should be the ultimate role model for the police. Look at the deep sense of sensitivity and empathy with which he listens to and wipes the tears of this elderly citizen. @PunjabPoliceInd @BPRDIndia pic.twitter.com/aBsbnr1wor

Must record and publicize these stories. Plenty of such stories but only the negative stuff gets traction. Police public collaboration is the way to go

I know well that many-very many-dedicated men and women are selflessly serving in Indian Police.
