The City Police conducted sports meet for children attached to Police Boys and Girls Clubs (PBGC).
The meet was held at Police Recruits School (PRS) Grounds.
City Police Commissioner A. Amalraj gave prizes to winners at the end of the sports meet. Deputy Commissioner of Police (Law and Order) S. Lakshmi and coordinators of PBGC were present.
Aimed to mould children from slums and crime-prone areas, 15 PBGCs are currently functioning in the limits of Coimbatore City Police.
The clubs managed by a scout master will be open for around two hours in the evening, providing children a space for recreation and reading apart from engaging in sports and games. The children are also offered counselling and career guidance programmes through the club.
