Mumbai: Mira Road boy declared best among IPS cadets

In what he described as a dream come true, 25-year-old Mira Road resident Sameer Aslam Shaikh led the ‘Dikshant’ or passing-out parade of 136 Indian Police Service officers in Hyderabad on Monday. Shaikh was given the honour as he emerged the winner of the Prime Minister’s baton and the home ministry’s revolver for being this year’s overall champion and the best cadet among IPS probationers.
Shaikh said he was inspired by former Mumbai police chief Julio Ribeiro to become a police officer and serve the nation. The son of a civil engineer, Shaikh studied at St Xavier’s School, Mira Road, in the year 2006 - 07 and did his Class XI-XII at Sathaye College in Vile Parle. He did his bachelor of engineering in electronics from BITS Pilani. “I worked hard on my studies to work for the nation,” he told TOI from Hyderabad.
