The book comes from a man who has spent thirty-three eventful and fruitful years of service in the Police. The book is located around the formation of India’s Police force, and suggestions and analysis. Made originally for a study project under the aegis of Pune’s Yashada (Yashwantrao Chavan Academy of Development Administration), the book is a compilation of the research and findings used here. The book therefore, is more than a theoretical treatise on this topic: it has the gravity and seriousness of a study based project. The author gives a detailed journey of the Police, from its establishment to the various recommendations implemented in its checkered passage. In a time and age where internal security has assumed colossal importance, a book like this proves its great relevance and need.
