Fifteen Sri Lankan police officers are currently training in India under a programme fully-funded by the Indian government, the Indian High Commission here said on Thursday.

The Sri Lankan police officers are participating in a comprehensive training programme on road safety and traffic management at the Institute of Road Traffic Education (IRTE) in Faridabad, Haryana.

The 15 officers, ranging from ranks of chief inspector of police, inspector of police, sub-inspector of police, and police sergeant, are participating in the programme.

"The government of India provided complimentary travel and accommodation, as a gesture of strengthening people-to-people contact between India and Sri Lanka," a release by the mission said.

Several other training programmes such as crime scene management and CCTV analysis, expert testimony on criminal trial, forensic science, cyber forensics, and a seminar on financial crime, have been organised by India for Sri Lanka's police personnel this year.
