In 2011, the President of Russia issues a decree by which a new law on the police enters into force prescribing the celebration of November 10, "Day of the employee of the internal affairs bodies of the Russian Federation." The staff celebrates their holiday at a labor post, guarding the order and quiet life of the country. A big holiday concert on television will be a traditional holiday present.
