The Indian Police JournalSummary: The field of tech enabled transparent policing with visible results & outcomes is a holy grail for Indian Police. Not that the thinkers are technologically challenged, on the contrary, the policy makers in Indian Police are the best of the technologically trained brains that a meritocracy can offer, but solutions which are in tandem with the demands and needs of the states and which are also, legally & proprietorially sustainable in a domain which belongs to the state subject, but has to be deftly maneuvered by center in achieving uniformity and not to appear condescending or patronizing at the same time, is a huge challenge.
