The proposal of creating a new post of Joint Superintendent of Police in Uttar Pradesh,serves no meaning and purpose.In the past,Uttar Pradesh Government done various experiments in name of improving law and order and making police administration efficient and effective,by creating new posts,but those experiments have been failed and it made police administration more inefficient,ineffective and unresponsive.I am totally unable to understand that what is the motive of  creating this new post,just because to promote some PPS Officers,who completed a certain age and period of service.What will happen with the criteria of performance appraisal? What will happen with the criteria of merit,and most importantly who will answer to the existing problem of lack of coordination in police administration? This is totally a rubbish idea and it will only create a new layer of inefficient and unnecessary police hierarchical structure.

Police reforms is a thought of creating a new and conducive environment for the most important stakeholder of democracy i.e. , a common man.It is a process of creating a space for rational thinking about how we can create an ideal model of policing.
