He said greater use of technology and clearly defined timelines for investigation and judicial procedures would help make the criminal justice system more efficient, transparent and citizen-centric. Congratulating the Puducherry Police on receiving the President’s Police Colour, HM Shah described the honour as one of the proudest moments in the history of any disciplined police force. With the conferment of the President’s Police Colour, Puducherry has become the 18th State or Union Territory in the country to receive the prestigious recognition. The President’s Colour is regarded as the highest honour that can be bestowed upon a police force in recognition of its distinguished service and professional excellence. HM Shah is also scheduled to participate in another programme in Puducherry later on Sunday.
