A
progressive, modern India needs a progressive, modern police. It is tragic that we are still saddled with
the colonial police structure, which the British raised in India. There were
several state commissions in the wake of independence to reorganise and
restructure the police. In 1977, the Centre appointed a National Police
Commission (NPC) as it felt that “far reaching changes have taken place in the
country” and “there has been no comprehensive review at the national level of
the police system after independence despite radical changes in the political,
social and economic situation in the country”.
