545 বাংলাদেশের স্বাধীনতা যুদ্ধ দলিলপত্রঃ তৃতীয় পত্র (4) Sub-Division. Deputy Superintendents of Police. There are 59 sub-divisions, each headed by a Deputy Superintendent of Police and his assistants. If the full quota is not available, it may be filled up by promotion from the ranks of the O. Cs having requisite qualifications. (5) District. There are 18 or 19 districts, each district headed by a Superintendent of police assisted by Additional or Deputy Superintendents. The exact number must be ascertained. If there is any vacancy, it may be filled up by promotion from the rank of the Additional or Deputy Superintendents of Police having requisite qualifications and experience. There should be no promotion unless the men deserve it. (6) Union Council. At this level there are 10 to 15 village watchmen in each Union Council. In all the 4,046 Union Councils, there are about 40,460 such men. They are not adequately trained and as such may not be appropriate to meet the post liberation law and order problem at their level. Steps are called for to strengthen these elements. (7) The entire law and order problem and the appropriate machinery must be viewed at the first instance from the Union Council, police station, sub-division and district levels. The machinery at each of these levels must be geared up and filled in by adequate forces. Time has come to examine it from the point of view of the country as a whole. (a) Union Council. It seems sensible to begin from the very base of the society, that is, the village. At this level, the force of the village watchmen must be strengthened. At each village also at the Union Council level there should be Village Defense Party or Force. The village watchmen and the requisite number of volunteers (10 from each village) and this will mean 100 or 120 for each Union Council will have to be reorganized. At each village there should be a voluntary Village Defense Party consisting of 10 young able-bodied young men led by the elected member from that village to the Union Council, but if the elected member is not either available or not suitable, a well respected man from the village should be the leader of the voluntary Village Defense Party. At the Union Council level, they and the village watchmen will be led by the Chairman of the Union Council, and if not available or suitable, by the most respected man there. U. C.
