The Union Government has approved the continuation of a police modernisation scheme for five years up to 2025-26 with a financial outlay of 26,275 crore.

The Union Home Ministry said the scheme includes security-related expenditure in Jammu and Kashmir, northeastern States and Maoist-affected areas, for raising new battalions, developing high-tech forensic laboratories and other investigation tools.

The scheme has been approved for the period from 2021-22 to 2025-26.

“This scheme comprises all relevant sub-schemes that contribute to the modernisation and improvement with a total central financial outlay of 26,275 crore,” a statement by Ministry said.

It said provision has been made under the scheme for internal security, law and order and adoption of modern technology by police.

Assistance will be given to States for narcotics control and strengthening the criminal justice system by developing a robust forensic set-up in the country, it said.

A central outlay of 18,839 crore has been earmarked for security-related expenditure in Jammu and Kashmir, insurgency affected northeastern States and Left Wing Extremism (LWE) affected areas.
