SPC to launch State’s first cycle brigade in Kozhikode school

Aim is to develop bicycle culture among the new generation

The Student Police Cadet wings in select schools in the State will soon get a Cycle Brigade. The new group that is set to be launched later this month is a joint initiative of the Kozhikode-based Grand Cycle Challenge and Bycs, an organisation of Bicycle Mayors across the world. Sahir Abdul Jabbar, the Bicycle Mayor of Kozhikode, said that the first cycle brigade in the State would be set up at the Government Vocational Higher Secondary School for Girls at Nadakkavu, Kozhikode. The decision was made at a recent meeting between Mr. Sahir and Mohammed Shafi, the State nodal officer of the SPC project. The new initiative is part of the 12th anniversary celebrations of SPC in the State. Accordingly, 12 students in the school would be provided cycles free of cost to be part of the brigade.
