Does India need more police force?

yes, Absolutely right...

India need more policemen because crime meter  is  high. The public of india  think that they would not safe.

India urgently needs a well-trained special police force to deal with cyber crimes and it must be equipped and trained to deal with all kinds of internet bugs, law minister Veerappa Moily said on Sunday.

"India does not have a specific police force to deal with cyber crimes and implementation of laws against crimes in the virtual world. India needs it urgently following the footsteps of US and South Korea," Moily said at an interactive seminar for judges, heads of police forces and prosecution of states here.

He said there were many impediments that needed to be overcome soon. While a vast majority of the police force or prosecutors in the country had no experience of tackling cyber crime, judges too lacked experience in appreciating evidence in such cases. As cyber crime knows no geographical boundary, the absence of international cooperation between police forces adds to the woes of victims and lets the culprit go scot free, he said.

It was attorney general G E Vahanvati who pointed out the danger potential of cyber crime as was shown by `Trojan horse' and `I love you' bug and said cyber crime was not limited to the web world but had been extended to mobile phones, which could be used to bombard a victim with messages and send illicit MMSes.

Chief Justice of India K G Balakrishnan said cyber crimes caused irreparable damage to the victims though it may not involve inflicting of physical pain. "Someone's bank account can be wiped off depriving him of life-long savings and others can face huge loss of reputation when his face is morphed and put in an obscene video on the net," he said while emphasising on sensitisation of the police, prosecutors and judiciary about the consequences of the crime.

Supreme Court judge and Cyber Law Enforcement Committee chairman, Justice Altamas Kabir, said the attending DGPs and judges should make efforts to understand the nitty-gritty of the anti-cyber crime law enacted by the country in the shape of IT Act, 2000. However, he said going by the growing ingenuity of cyber criminals, there was a need for expanding the definitions of various crimes listed in the law.

If you have all documents right and legal, why anybody will bribe?? we got to be right on our side

Yes, looking into increased crime rates India needs more police personnels. And lakhs of posts are vacant!! and there is shortage of man power?? the problem is all want  to work with MNC's sitting in Air-conditioned office, we lack motivtion to join such forces. There are so many umemployed youth they sholud be motivated and guided to join police force. And as we all know umemployed pepole are forced to indulge in crimes...How if they join police? - 'It will be like a mischievous student is made monitor of class, as our school teacher's use to do'

Yes, India need more police forces. The police should be there in the country according the ratio of population. The police forces have to be increase according to the ratio of population.
