Following Prime Minister Narendra Modi's call for 'SMART policing' at the all-India Conference of DGPs and IGPs, the Delhi Police is rolling out this initiative across the city. A poster outlining the SMART principles—strategic, meticulous, adaptable, reliable, and transparent—has been circulated to all District Police Commissioners (DCPs) for display at police stations and units. In a separate incident, tensions have surfaced within the Congress party as a senior leader and the head of the party's war room engaged in a physical altercation over a political message, creating unrest ahead of upcoming elections. Meanwhile, the 2025 batch of Indian Police Service (IPS) trainees is facing uncertainty regarding their state cadre allotments, which have not yet been announced despite their IAS counterparts receiving theirs. This delay is causing concern as the trainees need to learn the local language and culture before their district training begins after their passing out parade in October.
