People friendly working system in police department.


Today,people hesitate to go to police stations to register an FIR but this problem can be resolved in an easy manner.The fact of the matter is that,gap of mistrust between police and people can be only filled when the interaction takes place between aam aadmi and policeman and the best place for this is police station but it is very shameful that the environment of police station is horrible and aam aadmi doesn’t want to enter in a place full of suspicion and mistrust but if every district police start to register an FIR online then this problem can be solved up to some extent.For this,District Police Chiefs(DPCs) have to take the step forward and make their district police intelligent and active in making use of Information Technology but for this the computerization of all the police stations is must and their should be own website of every DPC,so that DPC are enable to look into the matter because effective monitoring is very essential in this matter.Accountability  must be fixed for every SHO that his police station is responding to every complaint in an effective and friendly manner.But,here again the most important role would be played by State Governments.

Modernization of police vehicles.


Today,Uttar Pradesh Police vehicles are in a very bad condition.Most of the police vehicles are not properly coloured,they have a rust on them,if blue lights are destroyed then there is no concern to repair them,lack of riots control vehicles,system fitted inside the vehicle are getting old,police vehicles carrying prisoners are on the stage of getting expired.It is very shameful for the state government that it don’t have a fund for modernizing their political instrument,it clearly shows that police modernization is totally out of agenda of State Government.Infact,every Police Jeep should be equipped with GPS,so that when any person call police, then that person should be enable to know the position of police vehicle and the number of police officer who is going on the spot should be given to that person,because everybody knows our police is very very slow in reaching the destination of crime,yes I agree that lack of police personnels is a major cause of this problem but this problem can be solved.Increasing the number of police personnels is a first step towards police reforms.
