Original manifesto wording
“We will rationalise the working hours of police personnel and ensure that they have a work-life balance.”
Our Assessment
Pending. The promise is to rationalise working hours of police personnel and ensure work-life balance. A Goa Official Gazette/Human Rights Commission record before the manifesto noted the need to fix constabulary duty timing or working hours to 8-hour shifts to address stress and health issues. That shows the issue was officially recognised before the 2022 promise, but it does not prove implementation during this term. Later approved news coverage reported Goa Police working with a 12% personnel shortage, adding pressure and workload. No approved post-2022 government order, police circular, staffing reform, duty-roster reform or implementation report confirming rationalised police working hours or work-life-balance reform was found. Status pending.
