Excerpt from Police and Crime in India The Indian Police have of late been very much on their trial. My object in writing this book has been to enable the public to form its own judgment upon this much-abused department. The Police department in India is the very essence of our administration. There is no other which so much concerns the life of the people. To the ordinary villager the blue-coated head-constable, or even constable, is the visible representative of the Sirkar, or Government. There is no one upon whose good will and uprightness his happiness so greatly depends. Who are these Police What like are they 2 Are they high-handed oppressors, or are they the loyal servants of Government, and the protectors of the poor? To these questions I have endeavoured to suggest answers. To compare the Indian with the English Police the worst-paid Police in the world with the best-paid - would, I submit, constitute a test that is neither reasonable nor fair. But I think that a comparison of the Police of India with, say, the Police of Italy would not be unfavourable to those of our great De pendency.
