TANK
\nRegional Police Officer (RPO) Dera region, Syed Ashfaq Anwar has said that the police force was committed to protecting the lives and property of the people.
\nHe expressed these views during a meeting with senior journalist and Vice President of the District Press Club Tank, Kifayatullah Pracha, and President of the Pakistan Journalists Association Tank, Muhammad Javed Arain.
\nThe meeting focused on the security situation in southern districts, police sacrifices, and developmental initiatives.
\nThe RPO stated that the southern districts have faced severe challenges due to terrorism and sectarian violence over the past two decades. The citizens endured immense hardships, and the police force made great sacrifices to protect peace.
\nHe noted that regions like Tank and Dera Ismail Khan were unable to achieve their true potential because of the prolonged wave of militancy.
\nHighlighting the efforts of the police force, the RPO said that despite lacking modern infrastructure and facilities such as advanced vehicles and protective equipment, the police have bravely faced every challenge.
\nHe expressed gratitude to the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government and Inspector General of Police Zulfiqar Hameed for their commitment to improving police capacity through better training, modern weaponry, new vehicles, secure police stations, and community service centers.
\nBringing good news to the people of Tank, RPO Ashfaq Anwar announced that the Safe City Camera Project has been approved for Tank. Survey teams have already arrived, and practical implementation will begin soon to establish a comprehensive security monitoring system.
\nHe further mentioned that the building block of the Police Lines in Tank, which was damaged in a past terrorist attack, will be reconstructed as funds have been released by the provincial government. The repair work on all police stations and outposts in Tank is also nearing completion.
\nAcknowledging Tank\u2019s underdeveloped condition, the RPO stressed the importance of launching the Tank Zam (Canal) Project, which could bring prosperity, create jobs, and significantly reduce the influence of terrorism through economic uplift and education.
\nHe also emphasized the vital role of the media in building public trust. The police, he said, need media cooperation to eliminate social evils and maintain law and order. He encouraged constructive criticism, urging journalists to avoid mockery and instead focus on reforms.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
