SHILLONG: A group of serving and retired police officers, civil servants, lawyers and civil society members came together to set up a multi-disciplinary platform to work for improving the quality of policing in India.

Launched at New Delhi on November 4, the Indian Police Foundation will focus on establishing global standards of professional skills and competencies as well as service delivery standards for Indian Police, promote good governance, accountability and transparency.

In a press release issued here by president of the Foundation, N Ramachandran, who was the former DGP of Meghalaya, said, “Apart from being a think tank and platform to deliberate, ideate, strategize, and lead the advocacy towards realizing the much needed transformational reforms in the Indian Police, the Foundation will constructively challenge the existing policies and practices of the police and also generate the much needed ideas to compel and assist the Indian Police to drive a campaign for systemic and transformational reforms.”

The Foundation will also set up a Police Institute as a Centre of Excellence for research, development and innovation, an ‘incubator of ideas’ that will partner with, assist and support the police to drive the change, through well calibrated strategies for the enhancement of professional skills and competencies of police personnel. Veteran police officer, Prakash Singh, was elected as the chairman of the Foundation. Editor of The Shillong Times, Patricia Mukhim, is one of the members of the Foundation.
