Women Police Stations
In Jammu & Kashmir, the women police wing was established in 1965 with a staff of one SI, 2 ASIs, 3 HCs, 27 Constables. Their duties included assistance to investigating staff in arrests, searches, and interrogation of women offenders and suspects. They were also used against women demonstrations and mobs. Their other important duty was the screening of women passengers at Jammu and Srinagar airport.
