Gorakhpur,

April 16 (HS): Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath underlined the

importance of security in effective government, citing developments in police

training and infrastructure. Addressing a crowd, he described changes made

since 2017, including more training capacity, renovated facilities, and

improved living amenities for police officers to help maintain peace and order

in the state. Adityanath addressed an audience during the opening of a modern

security facility near the Shri Gorakhnath temple, emphasizing the importance

of holistic methods to police recruiting and training. He said that previous to

2017, more than half of police positions were unfilled, and training facilities

could only handle around 3,000 people at once. Infrastructure improvements have

quadrupled its capacity to almost 6,000 people at once.

The Chief Minister also mentioned enhanced living amenities for police officers,

resolving previous problems. The complex infrastructure investments, such as

the model policing facilities at Gorakhnath, have resulted in a safer

environment, which is consistent with Prime Minister Modi's goal of good

governance. The new security facility is intended to provide extensive

facilities for various police units and specialised forces.

In a post on X, he mentioned, “Timely recruitment, timely

training, and timely provision of facilities have resulted in a better security

environment in Uttar Pradesh. This improved security environment has

established a strong model of good governance in the state. In Gorakhpur, the

sacred abode of penance of Shivavatar Mahayogi Guru Shri Gorakhnath Ji, today

Shri @GorakhnathMndr inaugurated modern security buildings equipped with

facilities such as the office of the Additional Superintendent of Police and

Deputy Superintendent of Police, control room, police store room, and maintenance

workshop, to strengthen security in the area. Heartfelt congratulations to all

personnel associated with the police department.
