The PO also said that they were arranging transport facility to youths to go to Eluru where recruitment will take place on June 7.

In the five-day training camp, the police will give training in all aspects including psychological tests. He said tribals were having all the qualities for qualifying in Army recruitment examinations, but they only lack direction and right advice.
