Women in policing have been the subject of considerable study for the past 20 years. While women perform as well as men in various patrol assignments and situations, they still face a significant amount of disapproval from the male police personnel population.

In India, according to the latest statistics of the home ministry, women constitute 5.3 per cent of the country’s police forces. Women have dual responsibilities, one hand she has to deal with her personal life which includes (Family, husband, grandfather-mother, child etc.) and on another hand, she has to deal with Job responsibility.
