“Set up National Security Commission”

NEW DELHI: India’s first woman IPS officer, Magsaysay Award winner Kiran Bedi, has demanded appointment of a National Security Commission, as directed by the Supreme Court in September 2005, for going into all high-level appointments in the Central and State forces and ensuring transparency and rationale in them.

Speaking on “Police Reforms and Civil Society” at a felicitation function organised by Saket MLA and Delhi Study Group president Vijay Jolly over the weekend, Ms. Bedi said if the Union Government had heeded the Supreme Court, Delhi could have well had got its first female Commissioner of Police.
