Dichotomy of being an IPS officer | Prem Krishan Jain | TEDxXIE

We believe in law enforcement to protect us, but many times, a mistake can lead to the downfall of a police officer. Onstage at TEDxXIE 2019, PK Jain, an Ex-IPS officer delivers a mind-blowing talk on how the Police impact the life of every individual in the country – and how often we are lead to believe the wrong side of the right. “The police always has to be in the line of fire because if they do not come up to that expectation, criticism follows.” Says PK Jain. A Teacher, a Banker and finally a Police officer, with a short stint in Politics, life has been on the roll for Prem Krishan Jain. He has always kept his feet firmly on the ground, with an empathy towards people, both within the Force and outside. Even in the worst of the situations, a cool mind, dedication and commitment, unswerving loyalty to his "practical" and "positive" line of thinking to find solutions rather than fault finding, has been his forte and seen him through very very tense, tough and professionally challenging situations. He created, established and built, from scratch, new institutions in the Force e.g. Maharashtra State Security Force, the Maharashtra Intelligence Academy and the State Police Complaints Authority, where he is currently working as a Member. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
