On the occasion of his retirement, the Chittoor District Armed Reserve Police on Tuesday held a ceremony to honour police dog Bindu, who has faithfully served the department for nearly eleven years.
Superintendent of Police (SP) V.N. Manikanta Chandolu, the chief guest, commended Bindu’s contributions to various police operations and felicitated him with garlands and a shawl. Additional SP G. Nageswara Rao oversaw the retirement proceedings. Bindu’s handler Mohan Raj was also present.
A sniffer dog of labrador breed, he was employed in VIP events and played a crucial role in maintaining peace during Brahmotsavams at significant temples like Kanipakam and Tirumala. He was also involved in various elections as part of police duties and received recognition for his outstanding service, including a gold medal at a police duty meet.
The retirement ceremony saw senior officials giving suggestions and insights to the dog squad personnel.
