a) 100
b) 200
c) 157
d) 190
Answer: 100
In several nations, the emergency phone number is 1-0-0, also written as 100. In Afghanistan, Nepal, Israel, Turkey, and Palestine, it is used to get in touch with the police. In Mongolia, the number 1-0-0 is used for infectious sickness, whereas in Iraq it is for emergencies.
The number is used in Brazil for human rights issues, domestic violence and child welfare in Peru, and risks in Chile. In Haiti, 1-0-0 is the number to call for HIV assistance, but in Belgium, 1-0-0 is the number to call for an ambulance or a fire.
Greece and India still use 1-0-0 for emergencies, however, both nations have started switching to 1-1-2. In India, 1-1-2 has taken the position of the police (1-0-0), fire (1-0-1), and women’s helplines (1-0-9-0) following the merger of emergency phone numbers.
The law in India is upheld by several organisations. In contrast to many federal countries, the constitution of India gives the states and territories primary responsibility for upholding the law.
Some of India’s paramilitary forces are employed by the Ministry of Home Affairs at the federal level to aid the states. The state police in each state have police forces in larger cities. The Indian Police Service (IPS) is made up of all top personnel in state and federal law enforcement organisations.
In order to hide the filth that their white uniforms gathered, British soldiers coloured their uniforms a beige colour several centuries ago. India can be dusty. And for that reason, the police uniform is khaki coloured.
In 2011–12, India spent Rs 1,188.9 crore on police housing. Even though we only added roughly 70,000 constables during this time, this amount increased to Rs 24,566.3 crores a year later.
