City police chief B. Dayananda announced this while reviewing the guard of honour on the service parade held at City Armed Reserve grounds here on Friday, where the home guards unit participated in the parade for the first time.
Mr. Dayananda said the city commissionerate is giving importance to the mental health of the staff along with physical health and allowing them to spend their special day with the near and dear ones as a part of the programme.
Regular counselling for the staff has also been arranged to ensure that the staff is fit and fine mentally and physically, he added.
