The Home Ministry has requested states to extend their full cooperation to the survey besides preparing their police force to undertake such surveys on their own
The survey will start in March and cover a representative sample of 1.2 lakh households, spread over 173 districts, based on the National Sample Survey framework. "All states and Union Territories would be included in the survey, which will be completed in 9 months," the Ministry said.
The survey is expected to throw up useful suggestions for formulating and implementing appropriate policy responses and changes in the police. It would also improve crime prevention and investigation, transformation in community policing, access to justice and increased/appropriate resource allocation for police in a systematic manner.
