The National People’s Power (NPP) government plans to recruit ex-military personnel to serve the police for a period of five years.
Public Security and Parliamentary Affairs Minister Ananda Wijepala made the announcement at the opening ceremony of the office of Thambuttegama Superintendent of Police over the weekend.
Minister Wijepala said the government intended to recruit 10,000 individuals, under the age of 45 who have legally retired from active military service, into the police force. According to him, they would be taken for a period of five years.
Minister Wijepala said that he would submit the proposal to the Cabinet that was to be held yesterday (09).
Even during the war, no government had absorbed such a large number of ex-military personnel to the police.
