Gujarat Forward Party calls for police audit and women’s stations in every taluka

The Gujarat Forward Party (GFP) has formally demanded that the state government initiate a full audit of the police force. The party argues that an independent review is essential to address alleged lapses in law‑and‑order management across the state.

In addition to the audit, GFP is pressing for the creation of women’s police stations in every taluka. The party says such facilities would improve safety for women, provide a more accessible reporting mechanism, and encourage quicker response to gender‑based crimes.

GFP spokespersons highlighted recent incidents that, in their view, expose gaps in policing and gender‑sensitive services. While the state government has not yet responded, officials are expected to consider the proposals ahead of the upcoming local body elections.

If implemented, the measures could reshape policing structures in Gujarat, aligning them with recommendations from civil‑society groups that have long advocated for gender‑focused reforms.
