This was not an ordinary day at the office, but a touching tribute to a cherished canine member of the police force.

In the video, Tara is honoured with a garland. Following this, a shawl is draped over her, and as more garlands and shawls are added, the atmosphere fills with cheers and applause from the police team.

The video, shared on X (formerly Twitter), was captioned, “Retirement ceremony of Tara, a member of Adilabad’s dog squad and an expert in detecting explosives. She belongs to the Labrador Retriever family and served the dept for 11 years.” It also included the hashtags Telangana,
