He said, by 'SMART' policing, he meant 'S for strict but sensitive, M for modern and mobile, A for alert and accountable, R for reliable and responsive and T for techno-savvy and trained.'
Stressing on the importance of good intelligence, he said "Good intelligence negates the need for weapons or conflict."
PM Modi also claimed that the media keeps "projecting only negative picture of the police", who do a lot of good work which is often not highlighted.
Extolling the role played by India's policemen, he said, "Since independence, 33000 police men have died in the line of duty". Police welfare is another issue which needs to be given importance, added PM Modi. "It was imperative to "change the perception about policemen in the country" said PM Modi, and expressed his "gratitude to all those police officers who are serving the nation".
