Report on the Police Administration in the Bengal Presidency For the Year 1921

1922

The increase of 358 included one inspector one sergeant five sub-inspectors 42 head constables and 312 constables against a decrease of three assistant sub-inspectors and was chiefly due to the reorganization of the town police of the Hoorihly district and the strengthening of the emergency force at the headquarters of the Asansol subdivision of the Burd wan district. [...] under section 17 of the Act by the District Magistrate of Chittagong within' the jurisdiction of certain police stations during the strike on the Assam-Bengal Hallway."3 The town police of Hooghly district were reorganized during the latter part of the year. [...] The proximity of the district to Calcutta the existence of a large number of mills and factories the influx of innumerable foreigners and strangers of whom many are professional criminals and the number of towns and municipalities constitute special features of the district and it is desirable that the town police should be strengthened as soon as possible. [...] 5. The Civil Police force generally: its drill discipline and shooting.— The training of mobilization contingents was as usual carried out in most of the districts in the course of the year and all available officers and men of the unarmed branch were put through the musketry and revolver courses. [...] Proposals for the redistribution of the jurisdiction of the river police to meet present-day conditions and for the extension of the patrol to the waterways of the Khulna district are still under consideration and I hope shortly to be able to submit a definite scheme to Government.
