Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina on Tuesday asked the police to gain the trust and confidence of people as this is very important for them.
"There's a proverb in Bengali, 'Baghe dhorle ek gha, police dhorle 18 gha (Meaning police are more dangerous than tigers). This proverb needs to be proved wrong," she said.
The Prime Minister was speaking at a meeting with senior officials of the police at the International Conference Centre (ICC) of her office, marking the Police Week 2018, news agency UNB reports.
She said the police personnel have to establish the image that they are the resort for trust and confidence of the mass people.
"Police have to gain people's confidence and trust so that they can think that police will help them, police are with them, they're the resort of trust for people. You must build that trust," she said.
Home Minister Asaduzzaman Kamal and Inspector General of Police (IGP) AKM Shahidul Hoque, among others, also spoke at the meeting.
