Despite containing 50% of the population, only 10-12% of the workforce is filled by women. According to home ministry guidelines atleast 3 women sub Inspector has to be there at Police station. No state meets this criteria. It shows very poor presentation of women at Police force.
The reasons for the low participation:
- Frequent inter district transfer.
- Poor child care system.
- Sexual harassment at the workforce.
- Lack of adequate facilities-changing room, Hygiene: Washing room
- There is a psychic that Police is considered as Man’s Job.
- There is discrimination in Promotion.
