Kerala take spoken English lessons to communicate better

<br/>To keep pace with changing times, cops in a police station in Kerala are taking spoken English lessons to enhance their language skills and communicate better with people. <br/> <br/>At least 100 constables and police personnel in the 25 to 55 age group of 'Janamaitri' (People friendly) police station at Aluva near Kochi are taking the lessons since last month. <br/> <br/>Aluva Rural Superintendent of Police T Vikram said, learning English also helps them access the Internet. <br/> <br/>All police stations have been given computers with Internet facilities. It helps personnel access mails. <br/> <br/>The IT revolution in the police department has changed case filing and communication procedures. They are also separately taking computers classes to be computer savvy. He said, Aluva region has a vast migrant population from different states. So learning English helps them hear and understand the problems better while trying to help the people.<br/>
