Police, the most visible face of the government, sets the wheels of Criminal Justice System in motion. It is, therefore, becomes important to study the Police system in India keeping the federal structure in mind. A group of academicians, practitioners, experts and researchers, along with Menon Institute of Legal Advocacy Training (MILAT) – a think tank - have started a project ‘Police System in India’.
