Reference Handbook for Covid-19 Policing Date: 6Th June, 2020 Reference Handbook for Covid-19 Policing Date: 6th June, 2020 FOREWORD COVID-19 Outbreak poses unprecedented challenges to law enforcement officers as they are at the fore front fighting the pandemic and at the same time trying to keep the citizens and force safe. This reference handbook seeks to standardize and summarize the standard operating procedures of policing, right from the early stage of identification of the COVID-19 disease to ensuring mitigation of this deadly pandemic by coordinating with various Sri M. Mahender Reddy, IPS stakeholders of the society. Director General of Police, Telangana State. For the past couple of months, it has been increasingly proven that timely and effective policing can help prevent the COVID-19 pandemic to a large extent. And so it is extremely important to consolidate the procedures and ideas in a concise and crisp manner. There is a need for evolving a frame work in the post-lockdown period to prevent largescale spread of Corona virus among Police personnel deployed on regular policing duties. In this regard a Committee was constituted with the following officers; 1. Dr. Jitender, IPS, ADG (L&O) TS., Hyderabad. - Chairman 2. Sri. Y. Nagi Reddy, IPS, IGP North Zone - Member 3. Sri. Sanjay Kumar Jain, IPS, IGP (P&L), TS. - Member 4. Sri. M. Stephen Raveendra, IPS, IGP West Zone - Member/Convener 5. Smt. B. Sumathi, IPS, DIG, CID (WSW) - Member 6. Smt. Rema Rajeshwari, IPS, SP, Mahabubnagar - Member 7. Sri. P. Satyanarayana, DSP, PSQMU, DGP Office - Member The committee assessed various risks involved in policing a pandemic and came up with a framework for mitigating the risk faced by Police officers in the course of discharge of their duties. In addition, the contribution of N. Swetha, IPS, Superintendent of Police, Kamareddy District, Sri. C. Narendernath Reddy, Addl. SP (CID), TS, Hyderabad, Sri. T. Uma Maheshwar Rao, DSP, CID, TS, Hyderabad and Smt. V. Sandhya, Jr. Asst. O/o the IGP, West Zone, Hyderabad is noteworthy. As we look to the scientific community to find us a vaccine for this pandemic very soon, I hope and believe that this handbook will equip us with necessary and timely tools and ideas in the progress of battle against this pandemic till such time. This can help us in preventing the spread of the disease to a large extent and also contain further causalities as much as we can. Director General of Police, Telanagana State Contents 1.

  • Insurgency, Counter-Insurgency, and Democracy in Central India
    CHAPTER 9 Insurgency, Counter-insurgency, and Democracy in Central India NANDINI SUNDAR The Naxalite movement began in India in the late 1960s as a peasant struggle (in Naxalbari, West Bengal, hence the name Naxalite). It represented the revolutionary stream of Indian Marxism which did not believe that parliamentary democracy would lead to the requisite systemic change and argued for armed struggle instead. While the Indian state managed to crush the movement in the 1970s, causing an already ideologically fractured movement to splinter further (currently 34 parties by official estimates),1 in 2004 two of the major parties, the Communist Party of India (CPI) (Marxist-Leninist) People’s War (formed out of the merger of the People’s War Group with Party Unity) and the Maoist Communist Center (MCC) of India, united to form the Communist Party of India (Maoist).2 The CPI (Maoist) is currently a significant political force across several states, especially in rural areas where state services have been inadequate or absent.3 Since about 2005-6, the Maoists have become the main target of the Indian state, with thousands of paramilitary forces being poured into the areas where they are strong, and the prime minister repeatedly referring to them as India’s biggest security threat. As a consequence, armed conflict is occurring across large parts of central India and is taking several hundred lives on an annual basis. In the state of Chhattisgarh, which is the epicentre of the war, sovereignty is contested over large parts of terrain. COMPETING PERSPECTIVES ON THE MAOIST ISSUE There are three main perspectives on the Maoist issue.

  • Combating Left Wing Extremism: Is Police Training Lacking? | 1
    IDSA Occasional Paper No. 3 The menace of Left Wing Extremism (LWE), commonly termed as Naxalism and Maoist insurgency, has been categorised as the single biggest challenge to India’s internal security by the June 2009 Prime Minister. He urged the Centre as well as States, to urgently employ all available resources to cripple the virus of Naxalism. The Government of India, Ministry of Home Affairs has adopted a multi-prong strategy to deal with the Naxal menace, including an effective security response to curb rebel’s violence. Due to socio-economic roots of the problem, emphasis is being laid on employing the State Police Forces to tackle the Naxal violence. However, the Government’s security response, have been ineffective in most of the States except a few. Inadequate combat capability of police forces in Naxalism-affected States is considered a prime factor for failing security response. Lack of proper training to police forces, due to poor infrastructure, resources and environment, Combating Left Wing Extremism is often attributed to inadequate combat capability of police forces. This occasional paper attempts to briefly assess the ineffective security response and Is Police Training Lacking? importance of police training, in Naxalism-affected States in general, and examines Chhattisgarh as a case study; in particular. The paper also discusses the role of the Centre in police training, and briefly assesses the overall police training environment and culture.

  • The Army? Shanthie Mariet D’Souza*
    Commentary Countering the Naxalites: Is there a need to ‘bring in' the Army? Shanthie Mariet D’Souza* As the Prime Minister and the Union Home Minister emphasized in the Chief Minister's Conference on Internal security in August and again in the Conference of the Director Generals of State Police Forces in September 2009, on the need to modernize the Police force of the country as an anti-dote to the problem of terrorism/ insurgency/ left-wing extremism, the task remains enormous and Herculean. In spite of the near unanimity among the political and strategic community on changing the face of policing in this country, individual states continue to be only reluctant participants in this grand project of the Union Government, a matter which is of considerable importance given that almost all of India's successful counter-insurgency campaigns have been led by the state Police force. The Punjab Police with support from the central In spite of the near para-military forces and the army successfully neutralized the terrorists demanding a separate unanimity among state of Khalistan in the early 1990s. Since 2003, in the political and the north-eastern state of Tripura, a Police-led strategic campaign significantly brought down the community on insurgency-related violence. The Naxalite-affected Andhra Pradesh has managed to construct a highly changing the face efficient model of security force operations in which of policing in this the state Police has played a critical part.
