The government has decided to introduce new uniforms for the police, Rapid Action Battalion (RAB), and Ansar and VDP (Village Defence Party).

The decision on uniform colours was made during a meeting of the Law and Order Advisory Committee at the Secretariat on Monday, according to Home Affairs Advisor Lieutenant General (Retd) Md. Jahangir Alam Chowdhury.

Reliable sources confirm that the Home Ministry’s advisory council approved the new uniforms during the meeting.

This reform initiative gained momentum following discussions on police restructuring, which began after August 5 last year.

The upcoming changes aim to modernise the appearance of law enforcement personnel while aligning with their functional and operational requirements.

Officials have indicated that the selected uniforms will reflect a combination of practicality and professionalism, ensuring better identification and uniformity across the forces.
