Girls from LoC villages volunteer to join police | | | EARLY TIMES REPORT JAMMU, May 30: As the 3-day police recruitment drive began in Rajouri Friday, girls from Sunderbani and other areas close to the Line of Control (LoC) appeared in large numbers to join the force and fight militants active in the district. Over 450 girls appeared in various recruitment tests that began Friday, official sources said. The young girls were judged on the basis of academic qualification as well as physical strength, the sources added. The various parameters of recruitment ranged from physique such as height and other tests of endurance like racing, throwing shot put, long jump and spiriting among others. "I want to join police force to fight militants and protect my people from the enemy agents active in Rajouri district," said Naseem, a candidate. The state police have been making efforts in empowering the women to encourage them in joining the forces. "Their qualifications are good and they are physically fit as well," a senior police officer said. "They will get employment in this field and they will also inspire other women to join such a tough job or service and help the nation," he added. Earlier on May 20, the state police had imparted special arms training to girls in Rajouri District.
