Police tactics and strategy has to have a component of beat policing.The effectiveness of beat policing designs a comprehensive picture of national security.

It is the task of the state government to design an ideal structure of policing and to sustain the credibility of that design is the task of the police administration.

When political class ask police to instil the sense of confidence among people,then it is nothing but irresponsibility,thoughtlessness and a mockery of our democracy.Afterall,who is responsible for running the welfare state,it is the government of the day.Who holds the civilian control over police administration,it is the government of the day.So,the government of the day is also responsible for implementing the police reforms in the state,which will inturn bring the sense of confidence for police among people.

It is the task of the state government to design an ideal structure of policing and to sustain the credibility of that design is the task of the police administration.

The moral and ethical code of ideal policing is embedded in the principles of police reforms.

Uttar Pradesh Police doesn’t know,how to perform the basic function of policing.Police administration in Uttar Pradesh is running only because of political blessings,without having any professionalism.

The issue of police reforms is not a political one,which can be sell with the brand name of any party,nor it is an economic one,which can become a chapter of financial management.It is an issue of national pride and sanctity of nationalism,which has to be implemented by the states.

Performing yoga exercise by a policeman is a decent symbol of improving management of policing in Uttar Pradesh.But,would yoga exercise be able to contain the political pressure? Would yoga exercise be able to bring rational changes in working hours of policeman? Would yoga exercise be able to bring police reforms? Would yoga exercise be able to make senior police officers accountable? I do agree that yoga exercise can reduce the mental and psychological pressure of a policeman for sometime,but who will bring the structural and managerial changes in police administration,this is a question,which Chief Minister should answer to the people.

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.
