Complaints Filed in Women's Police Station then Struggling for months - Why?
Women were recruited in the tamil Nadu police Department in 1973. In 1992, the first women's police station in tamil Nadu was started in chennai at Ayad Panna as a women's police station in all police divisions.
It was started with a strength of 1 woman police inspector, 3 women assistant inspectors, 6 women head constables and 24 women constables. Later, women police stations were created for each sub-district. At present 202 women police stations are functioning in the state.
After chandigarh in India, tamil Nadu has the highest number of women constables. 19.4 percent of the total constables in tamil Nadu are women. women who come to lodge complaints at women's police stations, which are established to investigate and solve women's problems, express their concern that "life seems to end before the problem is solved".
A woman from Tirupathiripuliyur, next to Cuddalore, mentions that she has not received any solution even after 3 months of initial investigation on her complaint lodged at Cuddalore All women police Station. Similarly, the same situation persists in all the women police stations including Panruti, Vrudhachalam, Chethiyathoppu, Thitakkudi, Chidambaram. It has been more than a month since a woman from Kammapuram filed a complaint at the Vrudhachalam police station.
He asked in a non-crying complaint that he didn't even ask. The lady constable replied, “The officer has gone out for another investigation. There are not enough investigating officers. There are not enough policemen to fetch the complainant. To whom should we report our grievances?
In this regard, a woman from Pennadam said, “I could not bear the torture given by my husband and mother-in-law and decided to live alone. They refuse to give me my goods. So I filed a complaint. I have been wandering for the past 6 months. So far the material has not been received.
Every time we come for investigation on the day they say. But the investigating officer goes out. Looks like my life will end before I buy this product. The police of the women's police station should decide on this," he said.
When I spoke to some women police inspectors in this regard, they said, "The condition of women complainants who come to police stations is pathetic. Hearing their stories will make your eyes flutter. We have the pulse to find a solution for them. But we don't have the human capacity for that.
The sanctioned number of constables in our police station is 35. But in practice we have only 10 people, one inspector, 2 assistant inspectors, 3 head constables and 4 constables. One of them will be allocated for high court trial and two for district Court trial.
And one computer operator, with the remaining 6 people to look after a sub-division. In this you have to go to Panthopast from time to time. Also have to go on night patrol. Then how to bring the person who is in the complaint? The vehicle given to us is worse than a trolley. In this scenario, how can we complete the investigation within the stipulated time? ” are protected as.
When asked about this to the district police officers, they said, “There is no separate recruitment for each division in the police department. We will take people to the police department in total and send them to the police stations. Then from the same police station, separate for traffic, separate for special section, separate for special force, separate for cybercrime, separate for DSP office and staff.
We give as we give, and we take away from there. This is a time-honored practice. The shortage of constables can be overcome only if recruitment is done separately for each division. Only good things will happen if the government sees to it," he said.
