How effective will NIA be?
NIA(National Investigation Agency) is the answer that Indian govt. has come up with in response to Bombay attacks.It will be a central agency with powers to function across states in India.How effective it will be, is a question that only time can answer. Previous central agencies like CBI have been used extensively for political reasons.Nobody will be surprised if NIA too ends as another tool in the hands of central govt to settle political scores.I think the need of the hour is to upgrade our police rather then create investigation agencies.What does an investigation agency do ?The answer is that they collect evidence after an incident has occurred.We don't want anything like that, what India needs is a police force that can combat these terrorists.Even if NIA has all the information, ultimately it has to be local police that has to face the real action.I think all police training should be handed over to the military training academies. people should be given a training under same institute and then he/she should be asked about whether he wants to join police or army.We have all seen that police is not trained in the most effective manner specially the low ranked policemen.There should be one department for the security of the whole nation.We not only need coordination among police force of various states but between army,navy,air force and police forces of various sates.It is coordination among all these that is the need of the hour.Defense challenges for a country are no longer at the borders of the country only.Anti national forces are increasingly taking support from the other nations to hurt India from inside.This is the new form of war that our armed forces have to be ready to fight and for this we require a potent and modern force inside the borders of our country and not on the fence only.Now the question arise can we give all the modern weapons to a hawaldaar in police.Well surely not, they already quite difficult to handle with only a danda, i don't know what they will do with a AK-47.We need every policemen to be concerned only about nation and for every single child and women walking in the streets where they have their duties.For this to be possible they need not have any worries at all about their families.I think police has to have highest pay scales in nation.If during next 6-7 years we can make police job as enticing a job as any other job in a private sector among youth of this nation then we can have true police force which will be committed to only one thing ie. national security.
