Furthermore, he shared that Nepal Police is dedicated to developing a modern police service centered on increasing the participation of women police officers, community-police partnerships, respect for human rights, and the rule of law.

Emphasizing that trust, coordination, and partnership among member states must be further strengthened to effectively resolve shared challenges of peace and security, Karki called on all nations to move forward united to build a safe, just, and peaceful world.

According to the Secretariat of the Inspector General of Police, the address presented on behalf of the Nepal Police effectively highlighted Nepal’s security perspective, professional capability, and firm commitment to world peace on the international stage.
