Responding to another question raised by JD(S) member T A Sharavana, the Home Minister urged members not to single out the entire police force based on a few incidents involving police personnel committing criminal acts.
“It is not that the police are doing nothing. There is peace in society because police are active. Compared to other states, the crime rate is less in Karnataka,” DH quoted the home minister as saying.
Parameshwara also informed the House that there are recommendations to dismiss police officials who have been found involved in criminal activities.
