摘要:Crime has become very sophisticated as some criminals make use of the very latest technology. To handle this, the police have developed equally sophisticated methods of crime detection and prevention. Legislation has also been updated to allow the police to gather evidence on criminal activity carried out via the internet, for example. Information is the key word in crime detection and this information must be accurate and easily available. ICT has a huge role to play in this. As India transitions into the new world economy a number of factors are operating to make traditional ways of policing obsolete. In addition to traditional societal problems like crime, mob violence, civil disturbances, terrorism, insurgency, etc. new forms like cyber crime, internationally funded terrorism spanning continents, international crime syndicates, etc. are emerging. Criminals are one step ahead of the police in making use of the latest technology including ICTs in implement their nefarious designs. This makes it necessary that th e police should also evolve to keep pace with the changing times. This research paper is an attempt to discuss the role of ICT in policing, its challenges and suggestions
