He said that there are currently 10 training centers of Sindh Police working across Sindh and I wish that the relationship between the trainers of all the training centers and the trainees/ teachers and students should be good and strong.

He said the DIG Training should prepare comprehensive recommendations regarding upgradation of all training institutes and send necessary steps for review. In addition, all possible steps should be taken for the cultivation and complete maintenance of eco-friendly trees, plants in all the training centers of the police for the best and healthy environment.

He directed the DIG training to prepare a draft containing actionable documentation related to increasing the budget of training institutions, repair of buildings of centers, provision of facilities and training tools and send approval and verification measures from the Sindh government.
