Public security minister Tiran Alles has warned top police officials of removal from their position if they fail to meet the targets he expects of them.
All should contribute when a certain programme gets underway as each and every one has a big role to play, he said.
Alles advised the police that they have been provided with firearms not to look on, but to use them whenever necessary.
He was speaking at a community police committee programme in Kandy.
Senior officers who fail to fulfil their responsibilities by 31 May will be transferred from their provinces, the minister said.
A big transformation has taken place since the launch of the programme amid unprecedented opposition, he added.
Alles requested the public to provide information about underworld activities and drug dealings in order to save their villages.
