Direct some funding to social and community based programs. Police only for serious and violent crimes

There is a vast untapped pool of tax revenue in the industries being plundered by the Naxalites. By eliminating the threat in the east, enough revenue could be acquired to increase funding to both

 @93RZ4JGanswered…2yrs2Y

Social and Community based programs should be used for the betterment of society. However, if most people refuse to change, then the police should step into action. both should be funded equally.

 @93FTBL6Independentanswered…2yrs2Y

A percentage of the police fund could go towards other social programs It will be counterproductive to completely defund the police but they shouldn't have enormously hig high budget

 @8Z3J2C3answered…3yrs3Y

Tough and tender; empower the police to fight crime with violent means when need be, and also empower social organisations with nonviolent means whenever that is possible

 @8VXS43LIndependentanswered…3yrs3Y

No. Rather increase funding for police massively, emphasise on more advanced training and community outreach measures.

 @8T6RZVXIndependentanswered…3yrs3Y

No, but police should be trained to use non-violent methods of confrontation first. Further, the police are currently overworked and underpaid. The number of working hours should be decreased and more officers should be hired to cover different durations of time. For non-violent calls, community based responders should also be available.

 @8RPP46Danswered…4yrs4Y

We may increase funding for some according to requirements but we must ensure they are working to their fullest without any flaws

 @8QM3R53answered…4yrs4Y

Instead of over funding the police and using them to harass peaceful protesters we should fund and encourage community based responders training that way the people would feel more safe and crimes committed by the police would also be reduced and unnecessary use of arms by the police can also be regulated

 @8CJV2LKIndependentanswered…4yrs4Y

Let the police funding be as it is while increasing social and community based responders

The increase in funding of law enforcement should be made after crackdown of corruption and decriminalising laws which target oppressed Communities
