Creation of full-fledged units of Police
15/11/2019
The manpower transferred to the Union Territory of Ladakh from the Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir till date is not sufficient to create full-fledged units of Ladakh Police like Crime, Security and Traffic. Now, Union Territory of Ladakh has set into motion an exercise to create full-fledged units of Police like Crime, Security and Traffic on the lines of other Union Territories in the country as early as possible in order to ensure required focus on all the important aspects. No doubt, there are full-fledged offices of District Superintendents of Police in Leh and Kargil but following creation of new Union Territory all other wings are required to be established so as to ensure required focus on all the important aspects and deliberations are going on with both the Hill Councils as without their cooperation necessary infrastructure cannot be created for Ladakh Police in a time bound manner.
For fresh recruitment and training they will have to create more infrastructure and the Hill Councils of both the districts have also projected the requirement of creation of more Police Stations and up-gradation of existing Police Posts as such their Chief Executive Officers (CEOs) have been asked to identify and allot the land for construction of suitable infrastructure for all the wings of the Ladakh Police as early as possible. Posts of SP Traffic and other ranks will have to be created as early as possible for better management of vehicular movement in Leh and Kargil, which witness huge influx of tourists during summer season. The Govt needs to study the police set-up in other Union Territories of the country so as to formulate the plans as early as possible and formally establish different wings of Ladakh Police as at present there is no clarity about anti-corruption mechanism in the Union Territory of Ladakh. It is yet to be decided whether independent agency will be created to fight the menace of corruption on the lines of Anti-Corruption Bureau in the Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir or any concerned Central Government agency would look after this aspect.
