It has been over four years now since woman police constable Lata, a native of Davangere, started serving in the city. Earlier, she had problems speaking with people in Tulu fearing rebuke by the locals. With one-month training, Ms. Lata has developed the confidence in not only speaking Tulu but also compose a small poem in the language.

Police constables Umashree, who hails from Hassan district and Manjamma, who is from Ballari district, also share Ms. Lata’s feelings. “This month-long training has helped us not only to converse in Tulu but also in Beary,” said Ms. Umashree. Ms. Majamma thanked the resource persons for effectively training personnel in Tulu and Beary communication.

These three are among the 55 police personnel who have completed their one-month-long training in Tulu and Beary at the office of the Police Commissioner.
