A safe and secure environment is essential not only for economic prosperity but also for social cohesion and political development. Police, as the primary law enforcement agency in the Punjab, bears the responsibility for providing safety and security through control of crime and maintenance of public order. In view of this responsibility, the Punjab Police have adopted a policing strategy that lays emphasis on community participation and problem solving. This strategy also incorporates the reforms that have been initiated by the Federal and the Provincial Government.

 

We are grateful to Chief Minister, Punjab, for generous allocation of resources for implementing reform and improving our ability to combat crime and making police a more responsive organisation.

 

The Punjab Police web site firmly places the Punjab Police on the information superhighway. It is part of our initiative to introduce new technologies to our working. This website is intended to keep the public informed of the activities, initiatives and performance of the Punjab Police. This publication will contribute to our dialogue with the public and civil society that would enhance community participation in the law enforcement process.
