Chaired by Deputy Inspector General (Operations) Md Rezaul Karim, the meeting brought together metropolitan police commissioners, Range DIGs, and superintendents of police to discuss strategies for enhancing morale within the force.

Highlighting the significance of community engagement, Baharul urged officers to strengthen public relations by actively listening to community concerns and taking necessary legal actions. He acknowledged the high public expectations in the current climate, reminding officers that patience and composure are essential in handling any unexpected situations that may arise.
The meeting also called for intensified efforts to recover looted weapons, underscoring the police’s commitment to public safety.
