Officers stress public trust
Addressing the recruits, Vikas Vaibhav said the day marked not only an achievement but also the beginning of a larger responsibility.
He said the personnel had successfully completed a demanding training process and now carried the responsibility of maintaining law and order and strengthening public trust in policing.
He said policing was not merely a profession but a service, adding that citizens often assess governance and administration through their interactions with the police.
Focus on security and confidence
The IG said the role of police would remain important in the broader goal of national development and in creating an environment of safety and trust.
He said public confidence in policing was essential for social stability and economic growth, particularly as Bihar seeks to attract more investment.
