  • Strategic Framework for Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Police
    Strategic Framework For Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Police Office of the Inspector General Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Police INSPECTOR GENERAL’s MESSAGE The undersigned took over the command of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa in the last week of September 2013 as Inspector General of Police. In the course of my extensive touring of the province and interaction with all ranks of the Police over the last five months, I have found this force to be gifted with distinct traits of courage, bravery, motivation and field craft. However, ongoing militancy in and around the province has changed the traditional role of policing. A role which is not only more challenging in nature but also extremely unconventional in practice. This, coupled with a myriad of our internal institutional challenges, necessitated the need for having a well thought out vision and a systematic & result-oriented strategy to actualize the vision. It gives me immense pleasure to state that after exhaustive deliberations and feedback from within the department, members of civil society, academia, NGOs, technology and process experts and various security analysts, we have not only been able to ascertain the future aims for ourselves in light of “Policing by Objectives” theory but have also evolved and are successfully implementing a comprehensive strategic framework to achieve the ultimate objective of winning public trust through better service delivery. Although there are no quick fixes for the challenges confronting the province and its police force, we believe our steps are in the right direction and would help generate outcomes that are not only effective but also sustainable, Insha ‘Allah. It is quiet heartening for us and the future of security apparatus of the province that the steps taken by Khyber Pakhtunkhwa police as per its strategic framework are receiving positive feedback and acclamation from media, civil society and most importantly the opposition political parties.
