Mysuru: Policewomen across the State are seen sporting the standard khaki uniforms consisting of pants and shirts along with a belt and boots instead of khaki sarees. In Mysuru too, the rule has been implemented and over 80 percent of women Police force are sporting the new dress. However, the implementation of the rule has not gone down well with many women cops who said that sarees are more comfortable than shirts and trousers.
In her order last month, Director General and Inspector General of Police (DG&IG) Neelamani N. Raju had asked the Department to enforce the “uniform rule” that will make it easier for Policewomen to react faster in the event of a crime.
