As many as 107 members of the police force are set to receive state recognition during the four-day Police Week 2026, due to be held from 10 May at the Rajarbagh Police Lines in the capital.
Selected personnel would get Bangladesh Police Medal (BPM) and President Police Medal (PPM) for their courage in service, anti-crime operations, skills in solving lawsuits, efficiency, honesty and discipline.
