THE ROLE OF THE POLICE DEPARTMENT IS IMPORTANT AS FOR AS THE QUESTION OF LAW AND RULES MAY BE PRACTICABLE.

The role of the police department is important in protecting the rule of law and the very essence of democracy,can only prevail if there is fair enquiry and investigation,as well as required speedy justice necessary for the good governance and accountability under law code manual prefixed by the constitution of India in this behalf.On the other hand no political party in power wants to give up its hold on the police.If police reforms are to be meaningful,these must be fair and honest for which efficient force of the police department is required to work at the bottom of the another arm of the law (Vigilance) and that is just as important as the judiciary.Hard questions and enquiry in the cases need to be asked and brought on the record of the police department before taking any action against the defaulters and the culprits responsible for the ruining democracy.In a real sense of protocol mentioned in the law and rules the police is supposed to implement the law and rules,where found necessary but they are only able to implement,what the political parties in power wants to do and if another party comes to power play the same would be the position repeated all over again,under these conditions and circumstances of the duty and responsibility no correct vision of the enquiry and investigation could be obtained from the lower level of the field investigation which is biggest challenge and hurdle against the police reforms and every political party is blamed for the cause of such misuse of power politicisation .The duty and responsibility of the police department is important and meaningful under the eyes of law code manual prefixed by the constitution of India in this behalf however an efficient and honest police force is required to bring transparency and accountability in the system of governance. As for as the transfer and promotion policy is concerned it is mis used by the party in power play for tight control over the officials.As such it is necessary to have a transfer and a promotion policy at appropriate level of the vision and correction of the police reforms failing which law and rules could not be maintained as required for the efficient disposal of work, identification of delays and the remedial measures under systematic review and revision by the competent higher authority.
