Even in a nonviolent State, a police force may be necessary. This, I admit, is a sign of

a police force, as I have in respect of an army. Of course, I can and do envisage a State
where the police will not be necessary; but whether we shall succeed in realizing it,
- Mahatma Gandhi
the future alone will show.
The police of my conception will, however, be of a wholly different pattern from the
present-day force. Its ranks will be composed of believers in nonviolence. They will be
servants, not masters, of the people. The people will instinctively render them every
help, and through mutual cooperation they will easily deal with the ever-decreasing
disturbances.
The police force will have some kind of arms, but they will be rarely used, if at all.
In fact, the policemen will be reformers.
Under Swaraj, you and I shall have a disciplined, intelligent police force that would
keep order within and fight raiders from without, if by that time I or someone else
does not show a better way of dealing with either.

- Mahatma Gandhi
How can we work with this vision?
When I talk about SMART police, I mean -

We have to take these five points and march ahead.

I truly believe we can fill the police force with a new life
and a renewed sense of consciousness.

Shri Narendra Modi

Honourable Prime Minister of India
Addressing DGP’s Conference at Guwahati
November 30, 2014
It is indeed a matter of great pleasure that the Uttar Pradesh Police is bringing out a ‘Coffee Table
Book’. Rule of Law is the soul of democracy. It is needed to move closer to this ideal by creating a
modern, responsive, impartial and friendly police, especially towards women and children. I hope that
through this Coffee Table Book common people will also come to know about the working of police in a
better way. I am sure that the Uttar Pradesh Police will strive more to identify and satiate the citizens’
needs. I extend my best wishes on the occasion.

Anandiben Patel
Governor of Uttar Pradesh
As we consciously steer away from our erstwhile Colonial
suppressive ways and accelerate towards Democratic,
Rule of Law Policing, this volume tries to present the
various ways in which… We Strive to Serve You.

 As we move towards Smart Policing, the first thing we have done is to get our priorities right.
Police needs to be closely involved with the Community. 

For that we have stepped out of our Thanas and patrol vehicles to systematically undertake Foot Patrolling.
Our main objectives are to...

• Meet People
• Gather Information
• Identify and Address Local Issues
• Enforce the Law

26 COMMUNITY CONNECT 27
 If we can make women feel secure enough to move freely and
go about their normal lives fearlessly, we would have made a
s tis yin cont ibution.  ANTI ROMEO SQUADS have been
operationalized to ensure orderly and welcoming atmosphere
in public spaces.

We synergize with Civil Defence Volunteers to Serve You Better.

30 COMMUNITY CONNECT 31
 Believing in this maxim, Uttar Pradesh Police has several arrangements for connecting with the community. Our fleet of more than
5000 vehicles works round the clock meeting people, assisting them and trying to get a pulse of the ground. In many countries
putting cops in the cars had a negative result. Hence we have, pre-emptively, laid a lot of stress on foot patrolling where police
officers step out of their cars and move around. They are encouraged to talk to people and build enduring relationships.

32 COMMUNITY CONNECT 33
 In Kanpur, Police Officers on Bicycles patrol the
parks in the morning and get a good opportunity to chat
with citizens while improving their own fitness. Of course,
we continue with regular meetings of citizens in villages
and in police stations to understand the community's
problems and find proactive solutions.

34 COMMUNITY CONNECT 35
36 COMMUNITY CONNECT 37
 We have multiple channels for connecting with women.

With our multitude of religious and social heritage, UP Police provides

 was a special challenge with all the terror
threats. These were compounded by the
perpetual dangers of stampede in the gathering
that happens to be the biggest our planet ever
sees. We look back with contentment that it not
just went incident free, but pilgrims enjoyed
themselves; they could immerse themselves in
spirituality while we stood guard.

42 MAINTAINING PEACE & HARMONY 43

 Interrogation of a series of terror suspects, arrested prior to the Kumbh,
revealed a design to attack or sabotage the sacred event. National
Security Guards and Uttar Pradesh Anti Terrorist Squad were at their
functional best unearthing and averting potential trouble makers.

Even after disrupting several modules, UP Police could never be sure that
no other threat was still out there in the open. An elaborate interdiction
capability was deployed.

44 MAINTAINING PEACE & HARMONY 45

 Helping Hands

In addition to the superior planning and execution, a great deal of

stress was laid on building a service orientation towards the pilgrims.
They could lend a helping hand to those in need.

 I am Inspector Pankaj Mishra.
Despite all our preventive efforts, crimes do happen.
To solve them and to punish the guilty, we have several arms working on this. Crimes are
registered at one of our 1576 Police stations which is the primary agency investigating the bulk
of crimes. We have even enabled online registration of FIRs. Some crimes are complex and
require specialist handling. For which, we have specialist agencies.

Complex and heinous crimes are transferred to the Crime Branch, Criminal Investigation
Department for specialist handling. The CID has 9 Sector Offices across the state, which
fastidiously examine each case and bring the culprit to book.

52 INVESTIGATION: STRICTLY BY EVIDENCE 53

 DISTRICT FORENSIC FIELD UNIT

The District Forensic Field Unit helps in evidence collection and

preliminary evaluation. It has a Mobile Forensic Van equipped with
packing and labelling, crime scene protection, serological, ballistic
and other essential kits.

Serious financial crimes are investigated by the Economic Offences

Wing which has investigators who are trained in understanding
financial processes and turning Bank records into crucial evidence.

Other specialist wings are Cooperative Cell, Food Cell, Special

Investigation Team, SIB Cooperative responsible for investigations
into their respective fields.

54 INVESTIGATION: STRICTLY BY EVIDENCE 55

 I am Abhay Sankhwar and I examine DNA for evidence.
Chances of a charge made by the police resulting in a
conviction increases manifold if there is unimpeachable
scientific evidence. Witnesses can turn hostile but
scientific evidence is a pillar which doesn't budge. Our
investigations consciously try to move towards placing
greater reliance on scientific evidence in the form of
fingerprints, chemical and biological traces and,
electronic evidence and results are there to be seen.

gap. Now we can assure you that your call will be answered within 2.5 seconds, details will be

 I am Hasnain Ahmad Khan.
I am in the noble profession of saving lives. I am a member of the Uttar Pradesh Traffic Police force.

Two persons die every hour due to road accidents in Uttar Pradesh, but hundreds other survive each day due
to the presence of my colleagues on priority areas of enforcement. And we are there every day come rain,
hail or shine. The exposure to harsh weather conditions often takes toll on our health but the nobility of our
work keeps us going.

80 KEEPING YOU MOBILE 81

 Taking advantage of rapid
strides in technology our
department is gradually
moving towards non-contact
modes of enforcement that
will make traffic enforcement
less taxing and more effective.
Widespread use of cameras
and electronically generated
traffic challans that can be
paid online is becoming the
core of our enforcement
capacity.

The traffic enforcement centre

on Noida-Greater Noida
Expressway uses PTZ
cameras to detect violations
and at this small but
technically advanced centre
traffic challans are processed.
Enriched with this experience
all the districts are now trying
to replicate it.

82 KEEPING YOU MOBILE 83

 In Lucknow, we use permanently mounted
cameras to identify traffic violations and
issue notices. The experience of such
contactless enforcement has been very
encouraging.

Moving forward under the Smart Cities’

Project, Integrated Traffic Management
Systems are being implemented in ten
largest cities of Uttar Pradesh. State of the
art Command Centres are being set up in
these cities with solutions that provide
Automatic Red Light Violation detection, No
Helmet detection, Seat Belt detection, Triple

etc.

 UP also has attractive places like Varanasi,
Kushinagar, Prayagraj and the Dudhwa National
Park which attract a large number of tourists
around the year.
Following our ancient tradition of 'Guest is God' or
'Atithi Devo Bhava' UP Police created a Tourism

guests safe and comfortable.

 I am Inspector Somveer Singh. My job is to keep you
safe while you travel by our country’s lifeline, Indian
Railways.
The GRP’s primary task is to prevent crime and, if
one happens, investigate it. We try to achieve this by
escorting more than 780 trains every day. I like this
duty because it gives me an opportunity to meet so
many new people and extend help to some of them.

94 MOVING ON METAL 95
 You must have felt how difficult it would be to contact the police from a moving train. And
even when you succeeded, it would still be tougher for us to find you. We have resolved this
problem by integrating GRP with UP100 and now a traveller anywhere in UP can reach out to
us, and we, in turn, can swiftly organize an escort to reach you. Of course, citizens also use
the UP Cop App and the Twitter Seva.

96 MOVING ON METAL 97
 At the railway stations, we serve you in
several ways to make your experience
comfortable and hassle free. Handholding
those who need a gentle support to sharing
the mild weight of your little ones, we patrol
the platforms.

98 MOVING ON METAL 99
 Unfortunately, this lifeline has often been the target of
vandals, saboteurs and terrorists. This is a crucial part
of our responsibilities which we achieve by regular and
intensive Anti Sabotage Checks.

100 MOVING ON METAL 101

 We can never imagine doing any of this
without the support of other stakeholders
like railways’ permanent staff and citizens
eking out a living on the platforms. Together,

we move ahead.

110 ALERT: AVERTING PROBLEMS 111

 In a modern democratic society, the role of police is crucial because we
provide the rule of law, which enhances civic trust and helps maintain
social order. Equality under the law is a basic principle of a democratic
society. Whether guarding the Vidhan Bhavan or saluting the National
Flag on Independence Day, our commitment remains the same.

112 UPHOLDING DEMOCRACY 113

 We appreciate our role in enabling and protecting
this most cherished element of our polity.
Whenever we go into elections, our responsibility is
to ensure that everyone is able to exercise their
franchise freely. Organizing an election is the most
complex logistical exercise we ever undertake. We
are happy to say that with each passing poll, we
become better and make our contribution towards
strengthening democracy.

 When the District Courts in Lucknow, Faizabad and Varanasi were rocked with six explosions,
the terrorists had hit the most hallowed pillar of our democracy. The responsibility was claimed
by ‘Indian Mujahideen’. It was the first time this name was heard.

The state responded by setting up the Anti-Terrorist Squad to root out the problem along
with similar challenges of counter espionage, Left Wing Extremism and fake currency.

Jaish-e-Mohammed, Lashkar-e-toiba, Khalistani outfits etc.

There is a team in ATS marking each terrorist organisation that

collects information about them, observes their activities closely

176 TECH-TACTICS 177

 Using the most modern techniques, we learnt to deal decisively with organized criminal gangs involved in
extortion, kidnapping for ransom and hired killings. Our operations across the country have given us an image
