&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;Many of the issues with India&amp;rsquo;s understaffed, overburdened police could stem from the growing criminalization of politics and reluctance for reform&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
A brutal attack on a young doctor in West Bengal, allegedly by relatives of a patient who died on 10 June, triggered country-wide protests by doctors in the country. The incident highlights not just tensions in doctor-patient relationships but also points to a lack of respect for the rule of law in the country, which leads mobs to take the law into their own hands to deliver instant &amp;lsquo;justice&amp;rsquo;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
According to a 2018 survey of 15,562 respondents across 22 states on perceptions about policing, the Lokniti team at the Centre for the Study of Developing Societies (CSDS) found that less than 25% of Indians trust the police highly (as compared to 54% for the army).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A big reason for the distrust is that interactions with the police can be frustrating, time-consuming and costly. According to the latest available data, 30% of all cases filed in 2016 were pending for investigation by the end of the year. This combined with the pendency in the judiciary means securing justice in India can take a very long time. As in the case of the judiciary, pendency in the police is driven by a lack of resources. The sanctioned strength of the police across states was around 2.8 million in 2017 (the year with the latest available data) but only 1.9 million police officers were employed (a 30% vacancy rate). As a result, according to Mint&amp;rsquo;s calculations, there are only 144 police officers for every 100,000 citizens (the commonly used measure of police strength), making India&amp;rsquo;s police force one of the weakest in the world. India&amp;rsquo;s police-to-population ratio lags behind most countries and the United Nations-recommended ratio of 222.&lt;br /&gt;

The incident highlights not just tensions in doctor-patient relationships but also points to a lack of respect for the rule of law in the country, which leads mobs to take the law into their own hands to deliver instant &amp;lsquo;justice&amp;rsquo;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;According to a 2018 survey of 15,562 respondents across 22 states on perceptions about policing, the Lokniti team at the Centre for the Study of Developing Societies (CSDS) found that less than 25% of Indians trust the police highly (as compared to 54% for the army).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A big reason for the distrust is that interactions with the police can be frustrating, time-consuming and costly. According to the latest available data, 30% of all cases filed in 2016 were pending for investigation by the end of the year. This combined with the pendency in the judiciary means securing justice in India can take a very long time. As in the case of the judiciary, pendency in the police is driven by a lack of resources. The sanctioned strength of the police across states was around 2.8 million in 2017 (the year with the latest available data) but only 1.9 million police officers were employed (a 30% vacancy rate). As a result, according to Mint&amp;rsquo;s calculations, there are only 144 police officers for every 100,000 citizens (the commonly used measure of police strength), making India&amp;rsquo;s police force one of the weakest in the world. India&amp;rsquo;s police-to-population ratio lags behind most countries and the United Nations-recommended ratio of 222.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.livemint.com/news/india/india-s-police-force-among-the-world-s-weakest-1560925355383.html&quot; title=&quot;https://www.livemint.com/news/india/india-s-police-force-among-the-world-s-weakest-1560925355383.html&quot;&gt;click here&lt;/a&gt; to read more. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&#039;

A brutal attack on a young doctor in West Bengal, allegedly by relatives of a patient who died on 10 June, triggered country-wide protests by doctors in the country. The incident highlights not just tensions in doctor-patient relationships but also points to a lack of respect for the rule of law in the country, which leads mobs to take the law into their own hands to deliver instant &amp;lsquo;justice&amp;rsquo;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
According to a 2018 survey of 15,562 respondents across 22 states on perceptions about policing, the Lokniti team at the Centre for the Study of Developing Societies (CSDS) found that less than 25% of Indians trust the police highly (as compared to 54% for the army).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A big reason for the distrust is that interactions with the police can be frustrating, time-consuming and costly. According to the latest available data, 30% of all cases filed in 2016 were pending for investigation by the end of the year. This combined with the pendency in the judiciary means securing justice in India can take a very long time. As in the case of the judiciary, pendency in the police is driven by a lack of resources. The sanctioned strength of the police across states was around 2.8 million in 2017 (the year with the latest available data) but only 1.9 million police officers were employed (a 30% vacancy rate). As a result, according to Mint&amp;rsquo;s calculations, there are only 144 police officers for every 100,000 citizens (the commonly used measure of police strength), making India&amp;rsquo;s police force one of the weakest in the world. India&amp;rsquo;s police-to-population ratio lags behind most countries and the United Nations-recommended ratio of 222.&lt;br /&gt;

A big reason for the distrust is that interactions with the police can be frustrating, time-consuming and costly. According to the latest available data, 30% of all cases filed in 2016 were pending for investigation by the end of the year. This combined with the pendency in the judiciary means securing justice in India can take a very long time. As in the case of the judiciary, pendency in the police is driven by a lack of resources. The sanctioned strength of the police across states was around 2.8 million in 2017 (the year with the latest available data) but only 1.9 million police officers were employed (a 30% vacancy rate). As a result, according to Mint&rsquo;s calculations, there are only 144 police officers for every 100,000 citizens (the commonly used measure of police strength), making India&rsquo;s police force one of the weakest in the world. India&rsquo;s police-to-population ratio lags behind most countries and the United Nations-recommended ratio of 222.<br />

India's police force among the world's weakest -Sriharsha Devulapalli and Vishnu Padmanabhan

-Livemint.com Many of the issues with India’s understaffed, overburdened police could stem from the growing criminalization of politics and reluctance for reform A brutal attack on a young doctor in West Bengal, allegedly by relatives of a patient who died on 10 June, triggered country-wide protests by doctors in the country. The incident highlights not just tensions in doctor-patient relationships but also points to a lack of respect for the rule of law in the country, which leads mobs to take the law into their own hands to deliver instant ‘justice’. According to a 2018 survey of 15,562 respondents across 22 states on perceptions about policing, the Lokniti team at the Centre for the Study of Developing Societies (CSDS) found that less than 25% of Indians trust the police highly (as compared to 54% for the army). A big reason for the distrust is that interactions with the police can be frustrating, time-consuming and costly. According to the latest available data, 30% of all cases filed in 2016 were pending for investigation by the end of the year. This combined with the pendency in the judiciary means securing justice in India can take a very long time. As in the case of the judiciary, pendency in the police is driven by a lack of resources. The sanctioned strength of the police across states was around 2.8 million in 2017 (the year with the latest available data) but only 1.9 million police officers were employed (a 30% vacancy rate).
