I think they do the toughest work done among government employees," Shah said."I don't know why, but attempts are made to malign the image of Police, you can say that there were campaigns. Some incidents were exaggerated and some other good incidents were not given space. The most difficult work in the entire government system is done by the police personnel," he addedThe Union Minister further mentioned how 3,700 Naxals have surrendered in the last few years under Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership and added that they will be brought back to the mainstream.The Home Minister also said that BPR&D should change as per the need of the hour."I am attached with over 80 institutions.
