Bihar Journal of Public AdministrationSummary: The purpose of policing in every society is to deliver security and safety to its members, however,their demand rises to its peak when it comes to maintaining and providing security to marine life and its surrounding areas especially when it is surrounded by the mighty river Brahmaputra. The marine policewomen play an intrinsic part often when there is a heavy flood every year, especially during monsoons. The present study aims to understand the various roles and responsibilities of police in providing security in nearby flood-hit areas caused by the Brahmaputra in the city. The study, based on both secondary and primary (case studies of thirty women police respondents from different ranks),highlights that although there are changes in the overall system of policing and in providing security, yet there are some systemic drawbacks in the crisis period when the river gets worst and more polluted. – Reproduced
