Abstract

India is a welfare state where the safety of the people is very essential. To maintain the safety of the people the role of police is very crucial. However, people hesitate to develop relationship with police. To remove the hesitation from the mind of the people the community policy plays a very important role. It is found that there is gap between police public relationship. This gap can be bridged when various community related programmes are organised where both police and public should actively participate. Through Community policing mutual trust develops in the mind of community and police which helps to create positive attitude towards police. To make community policing successful there is requirement of police reform. Supreme Court of India has also issuedguidelines to stop undue interference of politicians and ensure appropriate policy directions. State of Meghalaya being a tribal state is having better police public relationship in comparison of other States.
