The Indian Police Foundation and Institute is a multi-disciplinary think tank that brings together the police and the citizen stakeholders, to collectively work for building a professionally efficient and socially sensitive police. The Foundation believes that transformative changes in the Indian Police are possible through reforms that are both bold and practical, a well-calibrated series of collective action by the Police, the Central and State governments and the citizen stakeholders, to drive a nation-wide campaign for change. Considering the inherent complexities, the Foundation believes that simplistic, linear and quick-fix solutions cannot bring about sustainable and transformative changes in the system.

The Indian Police Foundation and Institute was inaugurated at New Delhi by Shri Rajnath Singh, Union Home Minister on 21st October, 2015.
