Lucknow: In an effort to bring adivasis
living in Sonebhadra district of Uttar Pradesh, where Naxals
are active, into the mainstream, the state police will coach
tribal aspirants wanting to join the force.
ADG (law and order) Brij Lal said here today that the
district police has made arrangements to provide 10-days
coaching to 224 candidates who are to appear in a recruitment
exam for the force on March 28.
He said this step was taken after it was found that
the aspirants had no information about the details of the
examination process or syllabus.
Officials in Sonebhadra found that as these candidates
were totally ignorant about the syllabus, they decided that
they should be provided with the necessary information in
order to help them join the mainstream, Brij Lal said.
Thirteen teachers and some police officers would coach
them for the examination, the ADG added.
