Focus on police science

Staff Reporter

NEW DELHI: In order to associate academic institutions with research on policing related subjects, the Bureau of Police Research and Development (BPRD) and Registrars of 35 universities across the country have decided to urge the University Grants Commission (UGC) to make police science and criminology research a thrust area in the 11th Five-Year Plan.

Special funds

At the fourth meeting of Registrars with the BPRD here this past week, it was resolved that the UGC should be requested to encourage research on police science and criminology and also earmark special funds for it in the 11th Plan.

Further, the UGC would be urged to ask the universities to open undergraduate and postgraduate courses on policing related subjects like correctional administration, forensic science and police administration.

BPRD Director-General Kiran Bedi and a delegation of the Registrars are likely to meet the UGC Chairman in the near future and discuss these issues in detail.
