Traffic Cops In Gurgaon Told To Shape Up Or Ship Out


By akansha, Section Gurgaon Police
Posted on Thu Apr 29, 2010 at 11:25:41 PM EST

A policeman's caricature obese, pot bellied, oppressively slow, panting while chasing a thief is a cartoonist's delight. But the Gurgaon Police is in no mood to let the cartoonists have a hearty laugh. It has asked its overweight traffic cops to shed that extra flab and get into shape to improve the image of policing in the Millennium City.

What's more, 12 policemen, who have been found to be overweight, have been given a deadline of 15 days to show ``considerable improvement'' in their fitness levels or get ready to be shifted out of the city.

``We understand that these cops can not reduce their weight miraculously, so we have asked them to show some sincere efforts. Else, they will
be transferred out of the town,'' said Alok Mittal, joint commissioner of police, Gurgaon.

He added that those who were `marginally' fat were spared for now but guidelines were issued asking them to ``take care of their expanding waistline''. The letters were given to some cops after a traffic police parade on Monday.

``Traffic cops are the most visible part of the police force and they must remain fit and smart. We want to change the public perception about cops being fat and inactive. We want a smart police force,'' said Mittal. The department plans to organize annual fitness camp for its 250 cops.

Said Mittal: ``We want our cops to be as smart as the residents of the city are. It is also a bid to prepare a team of fit cops ahead of the Games during which Gurgaon will host a shooting event at Kadarpur CRPF range.''

Gurgaon police is set to get 800 more cops before the Games. ``Once we have enough manpower, we plan to improve the traffic management,'' said a senior official.

Besides asking its cops to get fitter, Gurgaon police is initiating other measures to improve its image. Cops are undergoing training to learn English and improve their behaviour. A proposal to state demanding that every police station be allotted Rs 5,000 per month to serve tea and snacks to complainants was also sent.
