PROACTIVE POLICING IS NEED OF THE HOUR

The rapidly changing scenario in policing has necessitated a change in the policing style, too. “That is why we have to follow modern policing and make changes; otherwise we will not be able to cater to the needs of a growing population and its growing needs,both technologically and scientifically. Nowadays, instead of reactive policing, we have to focus on proactive policing. And, accordingly, we have to promote data management.” Dr Kumar said.
