Choudhury IPS (retd) Editorial It is my great privilege to announce that Bureau of Police Research & Development is entering into its Golden Jubilee year with celebration of this Foundation day. A brief look at the work of Bureau of Police Research & Development indicates that it has been working for improvement in the delivery of Police services, under the overall guidance of the Ministry of Home Affairs. In addition to its role in policy planning for smart as well as safe city projects, BPR&D has also taken the huge initiative in capacity building towards gender justice as well as containing crimes in general. Significant projects that have had an impact on the quality of service of the police are also under progress. This includes Impact Assessment of Police Modernization Scheme, Crime Victimization Survey, Witness Protection Scheme, Highway Safety, Community Policing, and Student Police Cadet Scheme. In all its endeavours, the Bureau aims at augmenting the positive attitude towards service orientation, integrity, and professionalism among the policemen. All the authors eloquently contributed features on varied issues that need immediate addressing and make the journal one of a kind in many ways. All pieces without exception are fairly good and greatly informative one can not skip them at any cost. However, some extensively impressive ones, I believe must be talked about without prejudice. Some excellent vignettes of this collection, I pride myself on exhibiting are by Dr. Shamiulla, who in his paper very deftly explores the legal perspective of the global response to cybercrimes. IT and computers have enhanced the scope of the police investigation to a great extent encompassing all focused areas. Dr. Mohit Kumar Garg, IPS in his write up discusses the evolution of legal provisions related to the admissibility of electronic evidence, which is vital. Besides, I cannot overlook the magnificent piece forwarded by Prasant N. Chaudhary and Jayanto N. Chaudhary that dwells at length on the need to ensure a sense of security in the North-East region and put forth their suggestions about making ‘Act East’ a reality. An avid supporter of drones being used by different countries, Pankaj Kumar Singh, IPS asserts that Drone technologies are indeed a game changer and their right usage can not only cut down on time and costs but also help in optimal decision making. In the meticulously researched article ‘Child Abuse’ the authors have given recommendations about the steps which could be taken to detect child abuse at an early age and save the life of a child. Well, I find no end to it. I express my profound gratitude to the members of this editorial team who have contributed a great deal to fostering intense and acute awareness and making the issue highly intriguing. The dedication undertaken by the writing crew is noble and unwavering beyond a shadow of a doubt. The issue displays an overwhelming response as a whole. I hope, we will continue to get your support in the form of articles and feedback. Many thanks.

  • Major Scams in India Since 1947: a Brief Sketch
    © 2015 JETIR July 2015, Volume 2, Issue 7 www.jetir.org (ISSN-2349-5162) Major Scams in India since 1947: A Brief Sketch Naveen Kumar Research Scholar Deptt. of History B.R.A.B.U. Muzaffarpur "I would go to the length of giving the whole congress a decent burial, rather than put up with the corruption that is rampant." - Mahatma Gandhi. This was the outburst of Mahatma Gandhi against rampant corruption in Congress ministries formed under 1935 Act in six states in the year 1937.1 The disciples of Gandhi however, ignored his concern over corruption in post-Independence India, when they came to power. Over fifty years of democratic rule has made the people so immune to corruption that they have learnt how to live with the system even though the cancerous growth of this malady may finally kill it. Politicians are fully aware of the corruption and nepotism as the main reasons behind the fall of Roman empire,2 the French Revolution,3 October Revolution in Russia,"4 fall of Chiang Kai-Sheik Government on the mainland of China5 and even the defeat of the mighty Congress party in India.6 But they are not ready to take any lesson from the pages of history. JEEP PURCHASE (1948) The history of corruption in post-Independence India starts with the Jeep scandal in 1948, when a transaction concerning purchase of jeeps for the army needed for Kashmir operation was entered into by V.K.Krishna Menon, the then High Commissioner for India in London with a foreign firm without observing normal procedure.7 Contrary to the demand of the opposition for judicial inquiry as suggested by the Inquiry Committee led by Ananthsayanam Ayyangar, the then Government announced on September 30, 1955 that the Jeep scandal case was closed.

  • Beyond Neopatrimonialism: a Normative and Empirical Inquiry Into Legitimacy and Structural Violence in Post-Colonial India
    BEYOND NEOPATRIMONIALISM: A NORMATIVE AND EMPIRICAL INQUIRY INTO LEGITIMACY AND STRUCTURAL VIOLENCE IN POST-COLONIAL INDIA A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment Of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY By Ashish Akhil Vaidya July 2015 Examining Committee Members: Joseph M. Schwartz, Advisory Chair, Political Science Jane A. Gordon, Political Science and Africana Studies, University of Connecticut Hillel D. Soifer, Political Science Sean L. Yom, Political Science Bhrigupati Singh, Anthropology, Brown University i ABSTRACT The purpose of this project is to demonstrate that the rational-legal bureaucratic institutions inherited by post-colonial states from their former colonial patrons have clashed with indigenous cultural norms, leading to legitimation failure. This lack of legitimacy, in turn, leads to political and bureaucratic corruption among the individuals tasked with embodying and enforcing the norms of these bureaucratic institutions. Instances of corruption such as bribery and solicitation of bribes, misappropriation of public funds, nepotistic hiring practices, and the general placement of personal gain over the rule of law on the part of officials weaken the state’s ability and willingness to enforce its laws, promote stability and economic growth, and ensure the welfare of its citizens. This corruption and its multidimensional detrimental effects on the lives of citizens are forms of what has been called structural violence. In this project, I examine four case studies of Indian subnational states that have experienced varying degrees and types of colonial bureaucratic imposition, resulting in divergent structurally violent outcomes. Deeming these systems “violent” has normative implications regarding responsibility for the problems of the post-colonial world.

  • 1) SNC Lavalin Scandal
    1) SNC Lavalin scandal The SNC Lavalin scandal is financial scam related to the contracting of the government with a Canadian company, SNC-Lavalin which resulted in an alleged net loss to the exchequer of 374.50 crore in the renovation and modernization works of the hydro electric power stations at Pallivasal (37.5 mw), Sengulam (48 mw) and Panniar (30 mw) - also known as PSP project in short - installed in between 1940 and 1964 at Idukki district in Kerala state of India. Several politicians were involved and eventually charged, including former ministers G. Karthikeyan of Indian National Congress, Vijayan. The first Politburo member in the CPI (M) history to be prosecuted in a corruption case. History In 1992, the Central Electricity Authority (CEA) of India rejected a proposal of Kerala State Electricity Board (KSEB) to renovate the three hydro-electric power projects at Pallivasal, Sengulam and Panniar instead the CEA recommended a capacity upgradation of the generators in these three power projects, after they found that these projects are in good condition. KSEB disregarded this recommendation and went forward with the decision to renovate these projects. The initial negotiations with the Canadian company SNC-Lavalin - a company which had been present in the state's power sector for several decades - began during the tenure of United Democratic Front government, [7] under the leadership of the then power minister C.V. Padmarajan and later, the Kerala State Electricity Board (KSEB) signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with SNC-Lavalin on 10 August 1995, when G. Karthikeyan of the Congress Party was the power minister, after the resignation of C.V.

The present paper provides a broad overview of the international obligations and guidelines, with respect to the care of prisoners, and summarise the various steps taken towards prison reform in India. It also deals with the general problems of Indian prisons.
