“After consulting with social scientists and statistians, the IPF decided to limit himself to separately determine the intelligent policing index for each country and UT, and refrain from the country’s ranking based on their individual index,” IPF President and CEO of Ramachandran, former IPS officer, Said at a press conference here to release survey findings.
“We believe that the insight of this survey will help the police to increase legitimacy, restore trust and trust, even when they try to progressively bring transformation in the police,” Ramachandran said.
The Chairperson of the IPF Prakash Singh, the former BSF DG the SC has put a road map for the main police reform, adding this is the first of a longitudinal annual survey to assess public perceptions about the police.
The survey found that respondents who did not have previous contact with police were more likely to have negative perceptions about the police, rather than those who had previous interactions.
