“Defund the police” is a slogan that supports divesting funds from police departments and reallocating them to non-policing forms of public safety and community support, such as social services, youth services, housing, education, healthcare and other community resources.

Direct some funding to social and community based programs. Police only for serious and violent crimes
@9LCZGRKBharatiya Janata7mos7MO
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
@93RZ4JG2yrs2Y
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.
@93FTBL6Independent2yrs2Y
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
@8Z3J2C33yrs3Y
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
@8XR7G7R3yrs3Y
the equal distribution can be done
@8VXS43LIndependent3yrs3Y
No. Rather increase funding for police massively, emphasise on more advanced training and community outreach measures.
@8TFM6WN3yrs3Y
As less spending ans no of people in police as possible
@8T6RZVXIndependent3yrs3Y
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.
@8T2C4JJ3yrs3Y
Yes. But without compromising police training
@8SVXLQ73yrs3Y
@8RPP46D4yrs4Y
We may increase funding for some according to requirements but we must ensure they are working to their fullest without any flaws
@8QM3R534yrs4Y
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
@8PXCLK54yrs4Y
@8CJV2LKIndependent4yrs4Y
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
In india police is already underfunded and under equiped So no, the funding to police should not be reduced
@99BZHJFIndependent2yrs2Y
No, rather police should be trained to help in providing social and community based program
Yes, it should be but in a limited manner
@997KF2RIndependent2yrs2Y
@98G5Z9YIndependent2yrs2Y
Yes but increase funding and training for police departments in higher crime rate communities.
@95CV7FQIndependent2yrs2Y
funding should be based on the efficient and unbiased work of local police departments, there should be a strict lookout for custodial conditions.
@93HMR7MBharatiya Janata2yrs2Y
A balance must be maintained
@8JFCZW2Bharatiya Janata4yrs4Y
Both policing and social-community programs can go hand in hand.
@8FTT5LR4yrs4Y
No, train the police in de-escalation and crisis management
