Hyderabad: Hyderabad Police Commissioner VC Sajjanar on Wednesday suggested police staff to steer clear of harmful addictions and instead cultivate creative hobbies to attain mental peace. He urged police officers, who hold a position of great responsibility to serve as role models for society.

Sajjanar released a book ‘Vamsadhara,’ a collection of prose poems, authored by constable Narayana Rao, who serves in the Hyderabad City Police IT Cell.

Speaking on the occasion, the Police Commissioner praised constable Narayana Rao, who hails from an ordinary farming family, for his dedication in producing such an excellent book, despite the demanding and high-pressure nature of his police duties. He noted that this is a matter of pride for the City Police.

Sajjanar encouraged all personnel to make productive use of their spare time for such positive endeavors, without letting it interfere with their official responsibilities. Furthermore, he mentioned that he is considering organising special workshops to help uncover and nurture the hidden talents of police personnel.
