The police have an obligation and duty to function according to the Constitution, law and democratic aspirations of the people. The functioning of the police requires it to be professional, service oriented and accountable to the people. The Annual Policing Plan is expedient to redefine the police role, its duties and responsibilities, as envisaged in the article 32 of Police Order, 2002. This plan sets out the main objectives for policing and tackling crime for the next year. It also sets out the objectives for working with sister agencies to improve community safety and criminal justice system in the district. The Annual Policing Plan reflects areas for the improvement and development, as well as key services which will be maintained. Although an issue may not be a priority, this does not mean that it will not be dealt with; the Police will always respond to emergencies and investigate crimes.
Its major objectives and priorities are to stream line a plan/ strategy, for the achievements of strategic goals, specific targets making the Police a service oriented department. It is a road map to evaluate the police performance i.e. where they are, where they want to be and how in particular time frame.
The activities of the Gujrat Police will be reviewed regularly, thereby ensuring that the most appropriate action is taken to reassure the public and improve community safety throughout the district. Our one year strategy sets out how Gujrat Police aim to achieve its strategic objectives over the year and the greater detail of what will be delivered within the next 12 months is contained within our “Annual Policing Plan for 2018-19”.
