Cops to dance for shedding weight

The weight-shedding Punjabi 'bhangra' dance exercise has been successfully adopted by the Bathinda police in the state of Punjab in India and will be followed probably by the entire state to make cops fitter and healthier. The state's Director General of Police (DGP) N.P.S Aulakh has asked Bathinda district police chief Naunihal Singh to make a presentation on the initiative to get police personnel into shape through exercises that also include a 'bhangra-dance' drill. Singh, a young Indian Police Service (IPS) officer posted at Bathinda, a south Punjab district, introduced the unique exercise regime for fat, overweight and pot-bellied policemen recently. Those police personnel who need to shed weight take part in the exercise, including dancing to bhangra-pop numbers, every morning for over one hour. In just two weeks, the personnel undergoing the weight-loss regime have collectively lost over 500 kgs, Singh said. Singh will now make a presentation before senior Punjab state police officials with details about how the scheme can be implemented all over.
