reforms for four years, Delhi Police Bill found wanting even as PM calls for its emulation, a study
finds out: Trithesh Nandan | February 1, 2011:
At the chief ministers' conference on internal security, prime minister Manmohan Singh
highlighted the urgent need for police reforms. However, with the states and union themselves
having resisted such reforms, the PM's statement runs the danger of ringing hollow, according to
the findings of a recent study. The report titled 'Feudal Forces- Reforms Delayed 2010' brought out
by the Commonwalth Human Rights Intiative (CHRI) indicts the governments in the federation for
showing lack of will to implement reforms - even after the apex court had asked for them.
“We cannot continue to police our society with archaic laws and policing systems, " the PM said
at the conference. But the think tank believes that the government may be doing too little even
after having woken up to the need for reforms quite late.
It highlights that four year's after the supreme courthad ruled on reforms, the union government
has done precious little. The apex court had directed the government to take initiatives toward
revamping policing in the country in the matter of Prakash Singh vs Union of India and others
judgment, but there hasn’t been much change ever since.
“Till date, only 11 states have enacted fresh Police Acts to replace the old legislation and two
states have amended their earlier laws on the subject to accommodate the new directives of the
court,” the report pointed out.
It said that both state and union governments have resisted such reforms. “The reason is that no
government is willing to weaken its control over the police force,” the report held.
“The politicians do not want their unfettered control over the police curbed and wish to retain
their present ability to use it for narrow political ends, to intimidate enemies and to stifle dissent,”
the study added.
The centre’s apathy on police reforms led the apex court to set up a committee under the chairmans
hip of retired judges to monitor the progress in July, 2008. “Only 13 states have so far enacted new
police legislations, where others have issued executive orders,” the report said.
The study found that 19 states set up complaint authorities but it is functional in only seven states.
According to the report, “No state government has established police complaint authorities at both
the district and state levels that fully comply with the SC’s orders.”
While the human rights violations are sometimes perpetrated by the police and the sufferers are
mostly innocent victims, the report noted that public in several states are completely unaware that
their government is in the process of reforming the police laws. “Involve the community and public
at large in the reform process,” the study advised the government.
It also recommended that social audits of police stations must be given special emphasis.
The prime minister also asked the union home ministry to prepare a model Delhi Police Bill for
other state police forces to emulate. But, the report finds several drawbacks in the bill.
A model bill, drawing from suggestions supreme court, was to form the skeleton for the Delhi
Police Bill. But the one the home ministry presented in 2010 has striking departures from what
had been proposed in the model bill.
“It is discouraging to note that the safeguards of independence and accountability explicitly
drawn up by the court and reflected in Model Bill have been ignored in the draft Delhi Police Bill,”
the report highlighted. The study said Delhi should not ignore recommendations of the court
directive on police reforms. Trithesh Nandan | February 1, 2011:
