How will the changes suggested under Police Reforms campaign help curb corruption?
The changes proposed by the Police Reforms Campaign strike at the root causes of corruption in the Police Force. The Independent Oversight Body will keep a check on the abuse and misuse of authority. This will help police personnel comply with the rulebook. All promotions, transfers and appointments will be done by an Independent Supervisory Body, which will remove avenues to pressurize police officials into manipulating criminal investigations. The day to day control of the police force is thus transferred to a body focused on merit and competency.
