SVPNPA Director Sujeet Pandey has identified propaganda and coordinated social media campaigns as emerging challenges for police. The academy is expanding training in information warfare, cybercrime, artificial intelligence, cryptocurrency-related offences and other technologies used by criminal networks.
Hyderabad resident N Chetana Reddy, allotted to the Telangana cadre, is among 151 trainees set to participate in the SVPNPA passing-out parade. She says practical training, police station visits and exposure to diverse cases have strengthened her understanding of policing.
