Residents’ associations have a significant role to play in curbing undesirable tendencies in the society including drug menace, crimes and atrocities against women, said Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan.
Speaking at the State-level meeting of the representatives of the associations in Kochi on Sunday, Mr. Vijayan suggested that the associations shall confine themselves to the role of supporting police in curbing such menaces and shall not engage in any forms of moral policing. The associations shall not assume the role of the police. Instead, they shall offer support to police for better policing, Mr. Vijayan suggested.
