On May 22, 2026, a training program focused on "Trauma-Informed Child Protection" was developed and conducted for officers and personnel of the Pune Rural Police Force. This initiative placed special emphasis on how the initial response—specifically within the first 30 to 40 minutes—should be delivered in a trauma-informed manner when children or adolescents arrive at a police station in connection with cases related to POCSO (Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act) or general child protection matters. The training program featured workshops and sessions covering various topics, including trauma-informed police responses, communication skills for interacting with children and adolescents, the sensitive handling of POCSO-related cases, initial response and dialogue protocols, and the development of a child-friendly and trust-based police system.
