Book Description

Policing The Police May Be A Strange Concept For The Police - But Is Necessary To Police The Society In Indian Democracy Today. Policing The Police With People S Participation Is A New Concept Of Recent Origin And The Book Deals With The Lack Of Policing In Police Down The Centuries. The British Created An Oppressive And Repressive Police To Retain Their Imperialism. The Police Committed Crimes With Abandon And The British Legacy Continued Even After India Became Independent. The Politicians Exploited The Police And Abused Police Muscles To Achieve Political Advantages For Them. The Police Misused Their Power And Authority To Serve Their Self Interests. Owing To The Lack Of Policing With The Police, People Developed A Negative, Avoiding And Hostile Attitude To Police Service. The Antiquated Police Act-1861 Did Not Envisage Any Healthy Human Contact Between The Police And The Citizenry. The Same Situation Continues Even After 50 Long Years To Policing The Democracy. The Book Treats Extensively All These Aspects And Many More For Policing The Police For The Third Millennium. Lawless Law Enforcement Is Condemned And The Book Will Interest Police Officials, Policy-Makers, Administrators, Academicians, Jurists, Lawyers, Politicians, Students Of Criminology, Administration Of Justice, Political Science, Sociology And Public Administration.
