In a world where police brutality and corruption often dominate headlines, is it still possible to build a police force the public can trust?

In this episode of Left, Right, Centre, we sit down with IPS Officer Tilotama Varma , currently serving as DG, Training, Uttar Pradesh Police. She shares her remarkable journey as a Female IPS Officer , breaking deep-rooted stereotypes faced by women in uniform.

From the emotional and physical challenges of policing to recounting a time when she had to sleep with an AK-47 beside her child, her story is one of resilience, courage, and Women Empowerment . We also explore how the relationship between law enforcement and the community has become increasingly strained, and what it will take to repair that trust.

Can a more sensitive, professional, and accountable police force be built? Can community policing, diversity training, and stronger accountability measures truly help? Tilotama Varma offers insights into how the system can transform and why it must.
