Key Points

• The Union Home Minister said that the All India Police Science Congress has an important contribution in the police system of the country from two perspectives.
• The first would be coordination between police across the country to deal with similar challenges and the second would be the use of technology to stay two steps ahead of criminals.
• The Police Science Congress is the ideal forum to discuss and work out a common strategy and coordination, the meetings of which are held under the aegis of BPR&D.
• He said that the practice of 10-year policing strategy and annual review should be institutionalized in the police departments, because now such crimes are taking place against modernization of police, training, coordination between police in states, and police outside the state. Fighting is not possible without coordination and assimilation of technology.
