BUREAU OF POLICE RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT (BPR&D)
BPR&D was set up in August 1970 because of the need that was felt for a separate organisation to identify and analyse various issues and problems confronting the Indian Police. As a centre of excellence, BPR&D is engaged in undertaking studies on police and prison reforms, promoting application of science and technology to police work, reviewing the arrangements for police as well as prison training, formulating and coordinating training policies and programmes, advising the Ministry of Home Affairs and through it the States on technical aspects of police work as well as prison reforms, promoting development of forensic sciences in the country, etc.
