Saravade is happy the ‘Police Reforms have gained a lot of traction’ of late. His post offers some useful links to diverse opinion :

The 21st century reformer could glance at the police. Today India’s police is an orphan child crying in a desert of neglect. When a three year old is kidnapped in NOIDA, it becomes clear that police still don’t have systems to communicate between states. There is no technology available to arrest a drunk driver, there is no technology available to investigate a murder, there is no technology or manpower available to enforce the law in pockets of the leisure industry where alcohol, drugs and mindless euphoria are creating deadly new murderers. Nor is there a police force neutral enough available in Khairlanji village where rods were shoved into the genitals of Priyanka Bhotmange as her mother was forced to watch.
