BASIC POLICE DATA

State Wise Basic Police Data Police Population Ratio Police Area Ratio (Number of Poliemen per 100 Sq. Kms.) Number of Vehicles per 100 Policemen after by one constable in the year 2007 despite many fold increase in challenges faced by police forces in the country and significant increase in the incidence of terrorism, communal violence, naxalism, security threats etc.
Year 1997 2007 % increase

This chapter attempts to provide you with the collated data on basic police issues in the country, which you may not find through normal published sources. The information in this chapter is as on 01.01.2008 along with the analysis thereof for eleven years from 1997 to 2007 for alternate years. The data covers all the States and the Union Territories of the country. The basic police data gives the information on Sanctioned Strength of Civil & Armed Police, Population per Policeman i.e. Police - Population Ratio, Area per Policeman, Number of Police Zones, Ranges, Districts, Circles, Police Stations, Police Posts and Number of Armed Police Battalions in the country. An analysis of national data on police for the period of last eleven years for alternate years is given in Table-A which gives percentage wise changes with reference to the preceding year and also with reference to eleven years period from 1997 to 2007. Thus the percentage change shall be for 2 years block. Police-Population Ratio It shows that percentage wise growth in the sanctioned police strength in our country has shown an increase of 27.03% whereas the growth in population was 19.42% during the last eleven years. As a result thereof, it is seen that 695 people were being looked after by one constable in the year 1997, which has decreased to 653 people required to be looked

The actual availability of Policemen gets further reduced owing to vacancies running upto 15.31% as on 1.1.2008. During this eleven year period the State Armed Police Forces have shown an increase of 13.58% from 3.63 lakhs i.e 0.363 million) in the year 1997 to 4.12 lakhs i.e 0.412 million) in the year 2007. Details of Population per Policeman for the Sanctioned as well as the Actual Police Strength are shown in the Table 1.3. (Page No. 14) Area of Supervision (from 43.41 policemen per 100 Sq. Km. in 1997 to 55.15 Policemen in 2007) The Police - Area Ratio (number of policemen per 100 sq. kms.) has increased by 27.03% during eleven years period of 1997 to 2007. At national level, as on 01.01.2008, we had an average of one constable for every 2 sq. kms. of our geographical area. In the less populous states like Arunachal Pradesh, for the Sanctioned Strength this ratio was highest at 1:13.92 sq. kms. followed by Rajasthan with 1:4.71 sq. kms. and in the densely populated States/UTs it was lowest in Delhi and Chandigarh at 1:0.02 sq. kms.

Mobility Mobility is measured in terms of the ability of the police force of a unit to move at once. Police mobility is directly linked to police performance. Quick response in real time, to law and order situations helps to preserve the precious lives of people and to protect public and private property besides being a reliable indicator of police performance. The vehicles needed to provide mobility to Police Force have been divided into four categories i.e. Heavy Vehicles (Buses, Trucks & Troop Carriers), Medium Vehicles, Light Vehicles (Jeeps / Cars) and Two Wheelers. Apart from the above types of vehicles, the States have also procured different types of Special Purpose Vehicles like mine proof vehicles, riot control vehicles, ambulances, mobile forensic vehicles, water tankers, prison vans etc. depending on vital police functions and their local area specific needs. At national level, a total of 1,21,677 vehicles were available with the States/UTs police forces as on 01.01.2008. It comprised of Heavy Duty Vehicles (9,903), Medium Duty Vehicles (16,308), Light Vehicles (45,597), Three/Two Wheelers (46,024) and others (3,845). The national average of the number of vehicles per 100 policemen was 6.97 vehicles as on 01.01.2008. At State level for sanctioned strength the highest number of 13.11 vehicles

per 100 policemen were held by Arunachal Pradesh followed by 12.51 by Andhra Pradesh and 11.25 by Tamil Nadu Police. This ratio was lowest at 2.99 vehicles for Nagaland Police followed by 4.63 vehicles for West Bengal and 5.16 vehicles for Jammu & Kashmir Police. Details of transport facilities per 100 Policemen for sanctioned as well as actual strength are given in Table 1.3. (Page No. 14) It can be observed that the major chunk of police vehicles (71,808) are four wheelers, which account for more than 60% of the total holding of vehicles with Police. Four Wheelers cater to the police mobility needs both of the Police Stations and supervisory officers. Data on rank wise Actual Strength of Civil Police, Armed Police and Traffic Police received from States/UTs have been tabulated at its respective place. It has been analyzed with reference to the Sanctioned Strength vis--vis Actual Strength. According to this at National level following trends are visible from this data:Sr. No. (i) (ii) (iii) Items Sanctioned Actual 653 1.81 6.97 771 2.14 8.23
