‘Expanding road network under CPEC big challenge’

NHMP IG says quality training of officers vital to achieve goals

LAHORE:

National Highways and Motorway Police (NHMP) IG Inam Ghani has said expanding the road network under China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) was a big challenge for Motorway Police and training would play a crucial role to achieve success.

He expressed these views while addressing the inauguration ceremony of new buildings of Admin block, Academic Block and barracks at NHMP Training College Sheikhupura.

In the perspective of CPEC, it is imperative to expand the infrastructure of NHMP Training College because it is a nursery from which officers will be passed out after training to perform their professional duties throughout Pakistan, IG added. IG NHMP also appreciated the efforts of Commandant Training College Mahboob Aslam in the expansion of NHMP Training College.

Ghani said the character building of the officers during the training develops the characters of the institutions.

“The quality training of NHMP officers is vital to coping with these new challenges.”
