Imagine a classroom where seasoned police officers become your teachers! This is exactly what transpired at Motherhood University, Roorkee, as the Amar Ujala Foundation hosted a session under its impactful initiative, “Police ki Pathshala”.

Guided by the powerful slogan, “कानून का सम्मान-कानून से जीवन आसान” (Respect the Law – Law Makes Life Easier), the program brought together senior police officials, including the SSP, SP, Traffic Police officers, and even cybersecurity experts, to interact with enthusiastic students.

This interactive session wasn’t just about memorizing legal codes. It was about fostering a sense of responsibility within young minds. The officers emphasized the importance of obeying laws, not just out of fear, but for a safer and more secure society. Discussions covered various safety issues, from fire safety techniques (demonstrated live!) to effective communication channels with the police. Students were even equipped with crucial contact information to ensure they have a voice in maintaining peace and order.

Empowering Young Minds, One Workshop at a Time

The “Police ki Pathshala” initiative is more than just a one-off event. Launched in May 2024 in Kanpur, it has become a cornerstone program of the Amar Ujala Foundation. The workshops are now conducted across all Amar Ujala units in collaboration with the State Police.

The vision is clear: to empower young individuals with a basic understanding of the law. This knowledge empowers them to not only be responsible citizens but also to actively participate in crime prevention and self-protection. By fostering a culture of respect for law and open communication with law enforcement, “Police ki Pathshala” is laying the groundwork for a safer and more empowered future.
