The term "Police" connotes the maintenance of order and the protection of persons and property from the hazards of public accidents and the commission of unlawful acts; especially, it, applies to the body of civil officers charged with maintaining the public order and safety and enforcement of law, including the detection and suppression of crime. It emphasises various inspectional, licensing and other regulatory activities. Thus, the life-line of a growing society is protected by a police organisation. The Codes and Conventions of Conduct developed in earlier times in the society were voluntary in nature. With growing complexity in human nature, violations necessitated creation of an external superior force, because without the force of discipline, no civilisation would have survived. There is an eternal policeman in each individual, which brings order in his personal and social life. The resultant of all the police functions of all the individuals who are members of the society is the organised police, which relieves the people of their police responsibilities. Therefore, the source of sustenance and strength of the organised police remains the people. Thus through the ages the society itself is not only a prime cause of crime but also the primary source of crime control. This enigmatic organisation has a long history, one that is as old as the recorded history of the society itself. The miniscule force of police in the tiny State of Goa is no exception. Its evolution.makes an interesting study. Historically, the development of the idea of police in society brought into fore two different concepts of the organisation of police. In the first concept, the whole responsibility of maintenance of law and order was entrusted to A the community itself. The social unit forming the community elected its own police among themselves or sometimes appointed from outside. In cases of emergencies, when • the police so appointed found themselves unable to put down the activities of defiant unsocial elements who threatened the orderly conduct and development of the community, the entire community was bound to join hands to render help to them. Such a practice can be seen in very ancient times in India and China, as well as among the Germanic tribes of Central Europe during the days of the Roman Empire. The early Saxon communities in England worked out this concept with utmost efficiency and indeed one can trace the English police system of Parish constables to the Saxon period. The present-day police force of Britain and United States of America evolved out of this system. This type of police is known as the "Kin Police" or "Anglo-Saxon" police system. It represents basically force exercised indirectly by the police from below upwards. This was also the concept of indigenous police developed through the ages in different parts of India, including Goa, in various regimes. In the second concept, instead of community-appointed police, the ruler-appointed officers had to deal exclusively with breach of law and punishment of offenders. The power and authority behind these officers consisted of military-type of force through which harsh and vigorous action was provided against law-breakers. This was the type of machinery for law enforcement that tyrants and despots developed in order to keep a strong grip over the people whom they ruled. The origin of the 4 Gendarmeric police system of the absolute monarchs who kept sway over the national States of Western Europe in the beginning of the modern period, can be traced to the system. This is now the pattern of all totalitarian States of modern times in which force is exercised by the authority from above downwards. In view of the constant rebellions, Muslims in India had adopted this pattern thereby paling into insignificance the role of the community-supported police. This Muslim system of royal police with military powers was also apparently in existence in Goa when the Portuguese took hold of this Territory. There a number of books written by Police Officers and Social Scientists about the police administration in India, covering in a broad way its history in various ages and areas of the Country. The theses like "Police Administration in North East India, British Period (1874-1947)" by Bhupinder Singh and "Policing in Karnataka, Growth in a Century" by B.N.

  • Smart Border Management: Indian Coastal and Maritime Security
    Contents Foreword p2/ Preface p3/ Overview p4/ Current initiatives p12/ Challenges and way forward p25/ International examples p28/Sources p32/ Glossary p36/ FICCI Security Department p38 Smart border management: Indian coastal and maritime security September 2017 www.pwc.in Dr Sanjaya Baru Secretary General Foreword 1 FICCI India’s long coastline presents a variety of security challenges including illegal landing of arms and explosives at isolated spots on the coast, infiltration/ex-filtration of anti-national elements, use of the sea and off shore islands for criminal activities, and smuggling of consumer and intermediate goods through sea routes. Absence of physical barriers on the coast and presence of vital industrial and defence installations near the coast also enhance the vulnerability of the coasts to illegal cross-border activities. In addition, the Indian Ocean Region is of strategic importance to India’s security. A substantial part of India’s external trade and energy supplies pass through this region. The security of India’s island territories, in particular, the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, remains an important priority. Drug trafficking, sea-piracy and other clandestine activities such as gun running are emerging as new challenges to security management in the Indian Ocean region. FICCI believes that industry has the technological capability to implement border management solutions. The government could consider exploring integrated solutions provided by industry for strengthening coastal security of the country. The FICCI-PwC report on ‘Smart border management: Indian coastal and maritime security’ highlights the initiatives being taken by the Central and state governments to strengthen coastal security measures in the country.

  • Protocols – Victim Assistance Units
    PROTOCOLS FOR THE VICTIMS’ ASSISTANCE UNITS UNDER THE GOA CHILDREN’S ACT Anita Haladi, Former Vice-Chairperson, Goa State Commission for Children (The following is a brief summary of the draft protocols for the VAU that was submitted by the Goa State Commission for Children to the Government of Goa in April 2007. The draft was prepared through a consultative process with NGOs, the police, prosecution, the CWC, JJB and child rights activists in order to create a collaborative effort towards child protection) The rationale for creating VAUs under the GCA was to offer assistance to children in difficult circumstances and children who are victims of child rights violations, by a team of multi- disciplinary professionals in order to provide support and guidance to both the victim and the law enforcement agencies, using a child-friendly rights based approach. The GSCC recommended the setting up of at least one VAU in each district (as provided for under the GCA) that would comprise of a co-ordinator, three case workers, two legal officers and a counsellor for each VAU. Protocols for rescue, ensuring that the rights and dignity of a child are protected through the procedures of filing and processing of complaints with the police and the children’s court and for the rehabilitation of a child whose rights have been violated The recommendations include the need for training for each member of the VAU, adequate support infrastructure for the VAU and the Forensic Examination Unit, protocols for the members of the VAU, the police, the prosecution, the NGOs and the institution established under the JJ Act, and for the rescue of children who have been or are potentially being trafficked.

  • 1. State Security Commission
    GOA ACTUAL COMPLIANCE Goa Government’s actual Compliance with Supreme Court Directives on Police Reform The Government of Goa has, according to CHRI’s information, filed two affidavits before the Supreme Court in the Prakash Singh case.1 The first affidavit, filed on 3rd January 2007 by the Chief Secretary of Goa, makes strong objections to the setting up of a State Security Commission, Police Establishment Board and Police Complaints Authority. It also states that the state government has no role to play with regards to selection and minimum tenure of the DGP, Inspector General and Deputy Inspector General as that is under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Home Affairs at the Centre. However, it also states that Goa has accepted the directive calling for the separation of law and order and investigation in principle and would begin the process shortly. The second affidavit, filed on 7th April 2007, sees the state claiming to be in compliance with several directives. These assertions are supported by government orders establishing a State Security Commission2, Police Establishment Board3 and Police Complaints Authority.4 The state reiterated its inability to implement directives 2 (selection and tenure of DGP) and 3 (tenure for police officers on operational duties) due to it lacking the jurisdiction to do so. Further, it changed its position with regard to directive 4 (separation of law and order from investigation) from the earlier affidavit, stating that separation was not feasible in a small state like Goa. Goa is also in the process of enacting a comprehensive bill which would replace the 1861 Police Act in the state.

  • Police Complaints Authorities in India a Rapid Study
    Police Complaints Authorities in India A Rapid Study Researched and Written By Devika Prasad Edited By Navaz Kotwal Commonwealth Human Rights Initiative (CHRI) B-117, First Floor, Sarvodaya Enclave, New Delhi – 110 017 Tel: 011- 43180201/43180215, Fax: 011-2686 4688 Website: www.humanrightsinitiative.org December 2012 Introduction It is now six years since the Supreme Court directed all states to begin reforming their police. In its 2006 judgement in the Prakash Singh case, the Supreme Court of India passed seven directives for structural reform of the police.1 These directives taken together were designed to kick start the process of reform. As one of the seven directives, the Court ordered all state governments and union territories to establish Police Complaints Authorities (PCAs) at the state and district levels, with immediate effect. In response to the huge volume of complaints against the police and the endemic lack of accountability, the creation of dedicated police complaints bodies has been a long-standing recommendation in relation to police reform in India. In 2006, the Court finally provided the push for implementation. The sixth anniversary is an appropriate occasion to take stock of how the Supreme Court judgement and the ensuing reforms have served the cause of police accountability in the country. Background The intention behind setting up police complaints authorities was to ensure that a local mechanism specialised in handling a wide ambit of complaints against the police, including the most serious, was readily available to the public at large. The long-term goal was to create a change in policing culture by drawing attention to and ensuring accountability for police abuses.

  • Complaints Authorities: Police Accountability in Action
    CHRI 2009 COMPLAINTS AUTHORITIES Police Accountability in Action CHRI Commonwealth Human Rights Initiative working for thepractical realisation ofhuman rights in the countries of the Commonwealth Commonwealth Human Rights Initiative The Commonwealth Human Rights Initiative (CHRI) is an independent, non-partisan, international non-governmental organisation, mandated to ensure the practical realisation of human rights in the countries of the Commonwealth. In 1987, several Commonwealth professional associations founded CHRI. They believed that while the Commonwealth provided member countries a shared set of values and legal principles from which to work and provided a forum within which to promote human rights, there was little focus on the issues of human rights within the Commonwealth. The objectives of CHRI are to promote awareness of and adherence to the Commonwealth Harare Principles, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and other internationally recognised human rights instruments, as well as domestic instruments supporting human rights in Commonwealth member states. Through its reports and periodic investigations, CHRI continually draws attention to progress and setbacks to human rights in Commonwealth countries. In advocating for approaches and measures to prevent human rights abuses, CHRI addresses the Commonwealth Secretariat, member governments and civil society associations. Through its public education programmes, policy dialogues, comparative research, advocacy and networking, CHRI’s approach throughout is to act as a catalyst around its priority issues. The nature of CHRI’s sponsoring organisations allows for a national presence and an international network.* These professionals can also steer public policy by incorporating human rights norms into their own work and act as a conduit to disseminate human rights information, standards and practices.
