Rajasthan Police Learn French for Tourists
14 Oct
Summary
- Twenty-two police personnel are undergoing French language training.
- The training aims to assist foreign tourists with communication needs.
- Initiative targets independent travelers, backpackers, and solo tourists.
In a move to enhance support for international visitors, Rajasthan Police have initiated French language training for 22 officers. This program, spanning one month, is designed to facilitate easier communication for French-speaking tourists seeking assistance or directions.
Personnel from the Tourism Assistance Force (TAF) in Jaipur and Jodhpur are participating in the specialized course. Conducted by professional instructors, the training is part of a broader effort to cater to Rajasthan's diverse tourist demographic, particularly independent travelers who may not have access to translators.
The initiative is already yielding positive results, with a trained constable successfully engaging French tourists in their native language. Police aim to ensure all visitors feel welcomed and supported, regardless of their language.
To further bolster tourist services, the department is also developing a dedicated webpage and an Instagram presence. Future plans may include training in additional foreign languages to ensure comprehensive accessibility for global visitors.
