Patna: The Bihar government will recruit 50,000 police officials in the next five years, an official said here on Monday.
As many as 5,000 sub-inspectors and 45,000 constables will be appointed. "The government will go for phase-wise recruitments," the senior official at the chief minister's office told a news agency.
"The decision was taken at a high level meeting of top officials chaired by Chief Minister Nitish Kumar on Sunday night at his official residence," the official said.
The state government will appoint 9,000 constables and 1,000 sub-inspectors annually for the next five years. "It will give a big opportunity of jobs to youths who have been forced to migrate to other states to earn livelihood," Additional Director General of Police PK Thakur said.
Thakur said Bihar had only 80 police personnel for a population of 100,000 as against the national average of 145 for the same number of people.
The state government also decided to set up all women police stations in all district headquarters soon. There are no women police stations in Bihar now, the official said.
The government will also set up exclusive police stations for Scheduled Caste and Scheduled Tribe in all districts. These police stations will look into cases of atrocities against such people.
The move is seen as a part of Nitish Kumar's commitment to check and control crime and improve law and order in the state during his second tenure.

Police Career: Police Recruitment: JK Police:कभी पुलिस पर पत्थर फेंकने वाले लड़के अब खुद पुलिसवाले बनना चाहते हैं...welcome boys..
Srinagar: Just a few months back youths in Kashmir used to turn out in huge numbers to fight pitched battles with the security forces in the state amidst a renewed period of violence. On Wednesday too hundreds of youths assembled outside a security force camp in Srinagar; but this time the motive was different – to secure a job as constable with the state police.
The state has a high unemployment rate and the scene would not have attracted much attention in normal circumstances. But the fact that many of these youths were believed to be involved in clashes with police last summer makes today’s development notable.
This time the police held an on-the-spot recruitment drive, which was mainly confined to residents of Khanyar area in the old city, here.
Khanyar area includes some highly volatile localities where stone-pelters had engaged police and CRPF in running battles during the five-month-long unrest in the Valley last summer.
The youths now want their share in employment in the police department.
"I am here because I have nothing to do. I completed my graduation in 2004 and since then I am unemployed," said 27-year-old Sajad Ahmad Shah.
He admitted that creation of employment opportunities could help in containing stone-pelting but said unemployment was not the reason behind such an exercise.
"More employment avenues can stop stone-pelting but why stones are pelted is a different issue," Shah said.
Faisal Ahmad, who did not meet the minimum height standard to appear in the recruitment drive, said he had come because he wanted a secure job.
"There is an advantage with it (police), you get a proper pay," he said, adding "I work as a daily-wager in a furniture workshop and the amount I earn is not enough to sustain my family."
All the youths, who appeared in the recruitment drive, denied to have participated in the stone-pelting but a CRPF jawan on duty at the camp claimed he had identified at least 100 youths who had indulged in stone-pelting in different parts of the city.
"I saw around 100 boys who were stone-pelters and I have seen them (hurling stones) at Nowhatta, Khanyar and near Islamia College," said constable Raj Kumar, posted in Kashmir for the past six years.
Inspector General of Police, Kashmir, SM Sahai, said "if there is a criminal case against anyone, he will not be recruited in the force".
"The exact number of youths who will be recruited will be decided by the response and quality of the people we get.”
"There is nothing unusual in the recruitment drive as we carry it out in areas which have no representation in the police department," the IGP said.

Police Career: Police Recruitment: होम सेक्रेटरी का बयान, पुलिस भर्ती में मेरिट हो आधार..
New Delhi: Advocating a transparent recruitment process for constables, Home Secretary Gopal K Pillai on Tuesday said improved police training and regular security drills can lead to a better response during terror strikes like 26/11.
Participating a panel discussion on 'Information Security - Implementation of Technology and Information Security Mechanism for a Secure Tomorrow', Pillai said the country's police training procedures need to be upgraded to address the emerging new challenges.
"Recruitment should be merit-based and training should be proper. That is the first step to make ordinary citizens of India safe," he said.
The Home Secretary said basic policing has to be improved, there should be regular exercise, security drills and fire drills. "...Else we have seen what happened in Mumbai on 26/11," he said.
Pillai said police-people ratio in India is very low among all countries -- just 138 personnel in one lakh population even though it should be 220 personnel in one lakh population as per the United Nations standard.
"In Bihar, we have just 68 policemen (in one lakh population), in Uttar Pradesh it is 81. Now the challenge is how to take the ratio to 200 to 220 in earliest possible time," he said.
The Home Secretary, however, said such a scenario would not emerge before the next 10 years despite government taking urgent steps to augment police training facilities in almost all states.
Pillai said security could be provided to the people with active cooperation of all citizens and cited the example of how an unsecured internet connection of an individual was hacked by terrorists to send a mail immediately after the December 7, 2010 Varanasi blast.
He said 50,000 computers are hacked in every second in India and such attempts are mainly being made from three universities of a neighbouring country.
The Home Secretary said despite "functional anarchy" in India, the country has huge technological, social and economic talents and have been contributing to the country's growth.

Police Career: Police Recruitment: JK Police:NC favouring its candidates in police recruitment: PDP...
Srinagar: PDP on Wednesday expressed surprise over holding of a police recruitment rally without any "prior notice" and alleged that the ruling National Conference in Jammu and Kashmir done this to favour its candidates.
"It is surprising that the recruitment was started without any prior notice, information or advertisement and it seems it is meant only for those recommended by the ruling party," the People's Democratic Party said in a statement here.
Expressing strong disapproval of the manner in which recruitment drive in Srinagar city has been launched, the PDP said "this is another brazen instance of the insincere conduct of state government."
The party said most of the people in downtown city were taken by surprise on learning that a recruitment drive has been launched in Khanyar.
"Numerous candidates could not appear as a result," the PDP said, adding, there are thousands of eligible men in Srinagar city who are academically and physically qualified to compete for constable's post.
"The government has thrown all norms and established procedures to the wind by conducting the recruitment clandestinely. This is in accordance with the tradition and character of National Conference which has revived backdoor entries into government," the Opposition PDP alleged.
It said the youth belonging to the city face acute unemployment, but the government's intentions are clear that it will not provide equal opportunities to all and will instead use it as means of "corruption, nepotism and favouritism".
The PDP said the NC has already lost all "moral and political" credibility.
"The government must ensure continuation of transparency and fairness in recruitment that had been introduced by the previous government," the party demanded.
The PDP said the government plans were not clear about the extent of recruitment. "It is necessary that it is not confined to just one constituency," it said, demanding that recruitment drive should be extended to all the Assembly constituencies and the government must announce the number of total jobs available and the criterion for their distribution and selection.
Khanyar falls in the Assembly constituency represented by state Law and Parliamentary Affairs Minister Ali Mohammad Sagar.

Police Career: Police Recruitment: JK Police:Police jobs major hope for Kashmir youths..
Srinagar: With government jobs getting scarce and multinational companies showing reluctance to start operations in Kashmir, police recruitment rallies are turning out to be a major hope for hundreds of unemployed youths here.
Several thousands youths today lined up to test their luck at the on-the-spot recruitment rally for the post of constables, at Jawahar Nagar locality here.
Though the minimum academic qualification for the recruitment as constables was matriculation, there were many with degrees and specialised post-graduate degrees.
Nisar Ahmad from Abi Guzar locality of Srinagar, who has a post-graduate degree in English literature, said he worked for four years in New Delhi with American Express as a senior associate.
"I came back because there was no one to look after my family," Nisar said in fluent English, adding the job in the police was an opportunity for him to earn livelihood.
Hilah Ahmad Shiekh, another aspirant with a post-graduate degree in Education, hailed the police recruitment drive for youths.
"There are no government jobs, private sector pays peanuts, what will happen with it. We have no other option other than this," he said.
Nisar and Hilal were among the hundred-odd youths who were recruited as constables.

Police Career: Police Recruitment: Hyd Police: Police recruitment test in Telangana
Hyderabad: The written examination for recruitment of police sub-inspectors began on Saturday near here and in Karimnagar town amid massive security in view of the threats by pro-Telangana groups to disrupt it, officials said.
Over 4,000 police and paramilitary personnel have been deployed at BHEL township near Hyderabad, where the test is being conducted at six centres. Tight security has also been made at Karimnagar, also in Telangana region.
Police have sealed all roads leading to the BHEL township. Even residents have to show identity proof before being allowed to enter.
The examination is also being conducted at Visakhapatnam, Eluru, Guntur and Kurnool for filling the posts in Andhra and Rayalaseema regions. Officials said the test would be held in two sessions Saturday and Sunday.
Meeting a long-pending demand of groups fighting for separate statehood to Telangana, President Pratibha Patil Friday deleted clause 14(f) from the presidential order making Hyderabad a free zone for recruitment to government departments.
Now, Hyderabad is no longer a free zone for jobs and almost all posts will be filled with local candidates.
With the deletion of the controversial clause, the authorities heaved a sigh of relief but they are not taking any chances as Telangana groups have demanded the postponement of the test for a month so that candidates from the region can prepare for it.
The central government's move averted a showdown as political and non-political groups from Telangana had warned of serious consequences if the test was held without deleting the clause.
The government had maintained that clause 14(f) had nothing to do with the conduct of the test as no posts in Hyderabad are being filled this time.
The notification for the exam was issued two years ago but the protests by Telangana groups had forced the government to repeatedly postpone it.
According to Andhra Pradesh State Level Police Recruitment Board (APSLPRB) chairman M Malakondaiah, around 18,000 candidates are taking the test to fill 1,293 posts.
He has warned criminal action against those disrupting the examination.
Meanwhile, at Eluru exam centre, authorities debarred a constable for copying during the exam.
