Numerous police reforms are being made in Rahim Yar Khan while the formulation of community policing has bridged the gap between the police and the public. Over 90 criminals in category A and over 600 in category B have been apprehended in one-month across the district.
This was said by District Police Officer Athar Waheed while speaking to Express News on Sunday.

Besides, he explained that block meetings and solution of the issues were also included in police reforms. The DPO added, “Shooting down the criminals will not help in achieving the objective.”
