"content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker Sir. I stand to support this Motion as amended. I thank Sen. Muthama for the timely Motion. We are all aware that our armed forces; the police, army and all other rangers are in danger because of wildlife and many other risks. The guards who work in security firms are in constant danger because of the nature of their duty. All these people are exposed to things that would be minimal to others. We are talking about fatality here, but we should not also forget those who are maimed in the line of duty to a degree of disability. It is a pity at times when we see officers who have been injured not being able to perform. They are forced to go home. Some of them refuse to go home, but hang around in the camps to get assistance from their colleagues. At times, their colleagues arrange funds locally to assist them. What does that do to the moral of the unit that they serve? This does not only demoralize the family or the individual who has been maimed, but the whole force. There are also circumstances that officers operate in that make them break The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
