oriented with smart policing. Speaking at the closing ceremony of the 20th All India

"Police forces need to undergo reforms and perform to transform the society," a South Central Railway press release
quoted him as having said. Naidu said music is divine and capable of touching the
hearts and minds of people equally. "Music brings out the best in a person and arouses the
courage, valour in the armed forces. Police bands and martial music inspires the forces,
invokes patriotism and commitment towards protection of the Nation, he said, adding that music promotes peace, harmony
and brotherhood amongst the people of the nation." Railway Protection Force Director General Arun Kumar said
events like All India Police Band Championship competitions would improve the co-operation between all armed and para
military forces. Naidu presented the overall championship trophy of 20th
