Delivering a speech after the inauguration and laying the foundation stone of various projects of the Indo-Tibetan Border Police (ITBP), Central Detective Training Institute (CDTI) and Bureau of Police Research and Development (BPR&D) at Devanahalli in Bengaluru, Shah said, “They (soldiers posted in border areas) should have this opportunity to stay with their families or at headquarters for 100 days… We are preparing rosters for this. The stress and tension of soldiers reduce. This is a difficult task, I understand. But, I believe from a humanitarian point of view it has to be done,” he said.

Shah also commended the services of the ITPB and CAPFs, stating that “they deliver service in the most difficult terrains of the country”. “We can’t even imagine the situation. They work in -42 degrees Celsius and they can only get the push to face harsh conditions from a high level of patriotism. When our ITBP soldiers are patrolling or camping, no one would dare to encroach one inch of my country,” he added.
“ITBP soldiers have got the title of ‘Himveers’ by the people, which is more than Padma Shri and Padma Vibhushan rewards which are given away by the government,” Shah said. Shah said the country will also have to focus on challenges in metropolitan areas, and there is a need to change our strategy through research and practicing with results, as city policing is going to be more challenging in the near future. He said, CDTI would help in fulfilling all these objectives for the CAPFs as well as the police of neighboring States, which has been running since 1956. Shri Amit Shah said the centers built in Kolkata, Hyderabad, Ghaziabad and Rajasthan have made huge contributions and now the Government of India will work towards bringing equality among all these centers through coordination and support of BPR&D.
Amit Shah said the CDTI will also serve the forensic needs of the neighboring States of Karnataka, Maharashtra, Goa and the UT of Daman-Diu. He said it is very important to have good law and order situation in the journey towards India’s development, and in the last 3 years under the auspices of BPR&D, the government has made changes to help improve research, the results of which are also now becoming visible. Shri Shah said under its charter, BPR&D has also started creating verticals in new areas added by Ministry of Home Affairs, Government of India and Modus Operandi Bureau is also running under the aegis of BPR&D.
The Home Minister also said the government is in the process of completing the full chain, where problem identification is done, research is carried out for solutions, recommendations are given, policy changes are made and execution is also reviewed in terms of law and order situation in the country.
