UNITED NATION: The United Nations' Police Division has conferred the International Female Police Peacekeeper Award 2014 to Indian Inspector Shakti Devi of the Jammu and Kashmir Police.
She is currently deployed in the UN Assistance Mission in Afghanistan (UNAMA).
"The UN Police Division honours Devi for her exceptional achievements in leading the setting up of Women Police Councils in several parts of Afghanistan as well as including her efforts towards helping victims of sexual and gender-based violence," the UN wing said.
She received the award at the International Association of Women Police (IAWP) conference held earlier this month in Winnipeg, Canada. (QNA)
