The well-researched articles study the ills that plague policing in India. They deal with the colonial origins of the Indian police. They are concerned with police brutality, corruption, bias, impunity and militarisation, arguing that the police system in India results in denial of justice and subverts the rule of law. They show that the Indian police functions to secure the interests of the dominant regime in power. They point out that those in power have vested interests in not reforming the police system. Written by G. P. Joshi, an expert on police reforms, they show that the ills of the police system have damaged the core of democracy in India.
