Village Defence Party
Trained village volunteers who assist the police in rural law and order.
What the scheme covers
Village Defence Parties are groups of trained local volunteers who work alongside the nearest police station to support law and order, crime prevention and disaster response in rural areas, particularly where police presence is thin.
Becoming a member
Membership is organised through the local police station and gram panchayat; volunteers receive basic training and coordinate with the beat officer for their area.
