Chief Minister of Odisha
“Today is not merely a ceremonial parade, but a celebration of dedication, discipline, sacrifice, and excellence. A police's outfit is not just uniform; it carries the power conferred by the Constitution and the grave responsibility of serving the society. Every officer must properly utilise the authority granted by the uniform to deliver justice to the weaker sections of society.”
