A series of e-ITEC (Indian Technical and Economic Cooperation) training courses for Sri Lankan Police officials conducted by India commenced on 27 January 2021. Due to COVID-19 related travel restrictions, a total of ten courses are being organized online in next one month.

The Inaugural Session was prominently attended by Sri Lankan police officers including Senior DIG Priyantha Weerasooriya and Indian officers from the Bureau of Police Research and Development (BPR&D), Ministry of External Affairs and High Commission of India, Colombo.

BPR&D is the nodal agency for organizing these programs at their various training institutes. Pertinently, the course contents have been tailored to fulfil the requirements of Sri Lankan Police and designed in a way where Sri Lankan police officers can have a formal interaction with the Indian police to share and learn from each other’s experiences.
