Indian Police JournalSummary: The present study was carried out to analyse the relationship between health status (physical and mental health) and resilience among the police personnel of Arunachal Pradesh during the ongoing pandemic. Resilience is the capacity of an individual or organization to efficiently plan and apply positive adaptive behaviours matched to the immediate situation while undergoing minimal stress. With the compounding adversity of Covid-19 and the pivotal role of frontline warriors witnessed across the globe, the current study aimed to investigate the relationship of health status with the resilience of the police personnel of the state, given the additional challenges imposed in the region. The sample comprised 155 tribal police personnel randomly selected from 5 police stations of the Capital Complex of Arunachal Pradesh. Sample was collected in the month of September 2020. PGI Health questionnaire was used to assess the physical and mental health of the participants. Brief Resilience Scale (BRS) was used to assess the resilience capacity. Data were analysed by using Descriptive statistics and Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient was calculated to investigate interrelationship among the variables. The results of the study indicated a significant positive relationship between health status and resilience capacity. Detailed results and implications of the study have also been discussed in the paper. – Reproduced
