This book is a novel attempt to present the real scenario of the existing conflict between Public and Police in India. It deviates from the traditional approach of proposing Police reforms based on mere observation. Besides survey of 1813 police personnel and 1010 civilians, the study also includes the narratives of police and public regarding the causes of conflict and resolution strategies. Through an intimate scrutiny of the perception of each other, police and public, the volume churns out the need-gaps in the vital and cardinal areas. The study investigates the following objectives: (a) to understand and analyze causes of conflict between the public and the police, (b) recognize ways in which conflict situations are handled at the police station, (c) determine gaps between existing methods versus an ideal way of police resolution of conflict situations (d) develop recommendations for working together as a system.

What are the best form of Conflict resolution strategies to resolve the conflict between public and police?
