The Uttar Pradesh Police will celebrate the passing-out parade of 986 women recruit constables on April 26 at the Police Commissionerate Lucknow's Recruit Training Centre. Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath will inspect the parade, which underscores a significant rise in women's representation within the police force. Since 2017, nearly 45,000 women have been recruited, a stark contrast to around 10,000 from 1947 to 2017. This expansion is supported by a policy mandating that 20% of police posts be reserved for women. The new recruits have undergone extensive training in modern policing areas, including cyber crime prevention and forensic science, alongside practical skills such as lock-up management and physical conditioning. This initiative reflects a commitment to creating a more inclusive and professionally equipped police force in Uttar Pradesh.
