Complementing the officer trainees for successful completion of training, the SVPNPA director said the 105-week training involved 15 weeks of foundation-course training and a 50-week phase-I basic course.

This was followed by 30 weeks of district practical training at the respective cadres or states and a 10-week phase-II basic course at the SVPNPA.

The director also said the course module was prepared by taking into consideration the current job requirements of police officers in India.

Attitude training was given special importance during the course, enabling the officer trainees to develop a more sympathetic and victim-centric approach, he added.

He said the indoor and outdoor exposures included Criminal Procedure Code, IPC and special laws, forensics, information and communication technology, human rights, yoga, and unarmed combat, so that the candidates could develop integrity and dedication towards their job and empathy towards victims.

He added that 37 lady officers, which constitute 23 percent of the total strength, would also be participating in the parade.

The parade would be commanded by Shahansha KS, IPS of the Kerala cadre, who is the all-round topper in phase 1 of 74 RR, he added.

The director also said that for the first time, as a part of the SVPNPA’s MoU with NALSAR, the officer trainees would receive postgraduation degrees, while officer trainees from foreign countries would receive a diploma certificate after completing their training.
