GENERAL Academy is the "Gateway" to the Profession Our goal is to send out police officers with adequate preparation to perform Policing

effectively for next 8-10 years. Physical fitness, smart drill, safe and efficient weapon handling and firing, high risk-

taking ability, high confidence and good leadership are some of the essential qualities of a police officer that the training tries to achieve.

Attitudes and inherent discipline go a long way in fulfilling that goal. All entrants to the Police Organization need to get sensitized to its ethos and norms

of behaviour. Overview Physical fitness is an underlying factor for performing essential and critical

physical functions of the job effectively. Qualities of leadership, team work, perseverance and high threshold stress levels

are important in police work which can be acquired through squad system of outdoor training in the Academy.

The purpose of conducting tests and defining common minimum standards is to discriminate between those who can and who cannot perform the essential and critical functions of the job.

The final aim of the outdoor regime is to give Probationers a platform to understand the nuances of long term physical fitness and understand the various options to obtain the same.

Objectives of Outdoor Training To develop strength, endurance, flexibility and body coordination. We value fitness

for its relationship to health and for its contribution to performance in profession. To develop leadership qualities. To develop high levels of confidence. To inculcate a strong sense of internal and external discipline required of an officer of

the Indian Police Service. To build an attitude to endure stress and work for long hours without physical and

mental fatigue. To develop the ability of teamwork. To learn command and control. To improve turnout, posture and personal drill so as to act as a role model and earn

respect of men. To develop pride in uniform; and To learn firing, weapon handling, tactical operations, combat, riot control and other

such skills which are critical and essential for any professional police officer.

2

Compulsory Minimum Standards The Probationers are required to attain a prescribed level of fitness and skills in all

the outdoor activities. Minimum Passing Score: 50% in each outdoor subject as well as in aggregate of all subjects is required in order to successfully complete the basic course.

An effort to guarantee success in the tests is the responsibility of the Probationer. Scheduled training sessions are limited due to fixed duration available in each working day. The Probationers who are weak are expected to schedule personal exercise time in areas of his/her weakness. Facilities and opportunities will be provided liberally by the Academy. Academy instructors will provide guidance and assistance to facilitate learning. Initiative has to come from the Probationer.

Failures and Injuries

All tests are compulsory and must be passed before a probationer can complete probation and continue in service.

In case of failure, one gets another chance to pass after which the case is referred to the MHA for review.

Probationers who are injured during basic training and are unable to proceed further must successfully complete the Programme at a later date when approved by the physician. In such a case, they will have to attend compensatory classes in lieu of classes missed by them or they may be relegated for the next batch depending upon the number of missed out classes. Probation period is liable for extension owing to non-completion of basic training due to any reasons.

Principles of Learning

The important physiological principles that shall be followed in the outdoor training to attain steady progress are:-

Readiness: The value of training depends upon the physical and psychological readiness of the individual. Readiness comes with maturity in thinking and humility.

Adaptation: Training induces subtle changes as the body adapts to the added demands. The level of difficulty shall slowly increase to give time to the body to adapt itself to the demands.

Overload: Training must place a demand on the body's systems if desired adaptations are to take place. The rate of improvement is related to three factors - frequency, intensity and duration of exercise. The overload stimulates changes in the muscles and other systems designed to help the body to cope with future demands.

Progression: To achieve adaptations using principles of overload, training follows principle of progression. Hence there is a steady increase in the intensity of inputs.

Specificity: All outdoor inputs are designed to impart specific skills. They are need based.

Repetition: Certain inputs, such as drill and weapon handling, rely heavily on the principle of building ‘muscle memory’ through repetitions, as the actions need to become part of officer’s reflex action.

3

Variation: To avoid boredom and to maintain interest, variations are introduced at the appropriate times.

Reversibility: It takes longer to achieve fitness and outdoor skills than to lose it. Hence, a year-round schedule must be maintained.

Group Activities: Outdoor training in the Academy is conducted primarily as a group activity to inculcate ethos of team-work. This is intended to ensure that weaker team members push themselves to reach higher standards and stronger members of the team pull their weaker mates up.

Potential: Every individual has a potential maximal level of performance. Most of us never come close to that potential performance. The only way to approach this maximal potential is to regularly participate in physical activity.

Multiple benefits are expected to accrue to the Probationer from the comprehensive outdoor inputs planned for them. The following chart explains the gains from various activities:

The objective of imparting instructions in this subject is to train a probationer in the correct techniques of employing force against an unlawful assembly and the various munitions available for the same. The basic formations and the basic exercises will be taught.

It may be stated that these drills cannot be strictly followed in real life situations because of constraints of terrain, time and availability of manpower. However, these drills provide the basic framework on which innovations can be made depending on the situations. This would be reinforced by simulated exercises in Riot Drill.

Exposure to non lethal, Para-lethal & lethal options shall be given.

The principle of minimum use of force to disperse an unlawful assemble contains simple measures like presence of police to use of non lethal munitions use of contact equipment like lathi, batons, and in extreme conditions use of lethal fire power.

C. Weapon Training and Firing

The objective of Weapon Training is to make a probationer proficient in handling different weapons presently in use in the police forces.

The Probationer would be required to undergo extensive practice in handling the weapons correctly, disassembling and assembling them and proper maintenance of weapons.

A good grounding in weapon training would also be required for Probationer to acquire proficiency in firing these weapons thereafter.

Day by day police is required to deal with increasing incidence of violence in the society, including special problems like naxalism, insurgency and terrorism, etc. Proficiency with weapons may turn out to be the crucial factor in saving life and property in such situations.

Varies with

season

11

While imparting instructions in the use of the weapons, particular emphasis will be laid on the following aspects:

I. Safety II. Maintenance III. Ease in handling IV. Firing accuracy

A probationer will be taught the fundamentals of shooting:

The stance and position Grip and aids to developing a good grip Breath Control Sight Alignment: The eye, Relationship of sights, Points of Focus, Concentration Trigger Control: Factors providing for control, Application of trigger pressure, Errors

in the trigger control and means of combating the same. Zeroing

He will be given extensive practice in firing each of the weapons mentioned earlier.

The firing session would be progressive starting from practices where safety is the major concern subsequently moving to accurate firing and firing under stress. The last stage of firearm training would be to fire in simulated combat conditions in different scenarios which will include obstacle crossing, identification of target, changing weapons and engaging targets while on the move.

At the end of weapon training, Probationers will undergo realistic firing practice which would integrate physical fitness, mental alertness & firing skills.

Objective: To train a probationer to neutralize a target consistently, in minimum possible time in real-life like situations.

Range Discipline and Safety is the most essential requirement during any training in Firing. Any casualness in this regard can result in serious consequences.

Reflex & Combat Firing Module Combat shooting skills have to be learnt over and above the traditional

marksmanship methods. Though police officers have to use minimum force, until and unless a policeman is properly trained in effective use of weapons, S/he may fall prey to the offenders' bullets.

A special module on "Reflex Shooting" with the weapons, which will be mainly handled by the IPS Officers, would be conducted. Probationer will be given firing practices against single and later multiple silhouette targets placed at the ranges in such a manner as to simulate real, typically encountered situations.

It has also been realized that training in individual combat, while unquestionably important in its own right, will be worthless if the principles of tactics are ignored. The purpose of utilizing effective tactical procedures is to train the firer to place himself in the best possible position at all times, use the fundamental marksmanship skills, while minimizing his own exposure to danger.

The advanced stage of firing practices, where firing scenarios are created for different scenarios / situations involving multiple targets like friend and foe target, crowd scenario targets, improves confidence and demands identifying targets while on move in urban and jungle combat environments. Stress is introduced with introduction of obstacles in combat firing in different pattern every time to simulate real field conditions. The module also introduces trainees to concepts of changing from primary to secondary fire arm, fire and move techniques, tactical reload etc.

ALERT! Marksmanship is of no use, if a weapon is handled unsafely- causing danger to oneself and others. Moreover, a police officer has to organize annual firing practices, where safety is the foremost criterion. Therefore, any kind of casualness and deviation from prescribed drill on the range in either firing or weapon handling will be viewed extremely seriously. Apart from any other action that shall be taken, the defaulter will be withdrawn from the firing range and asked to undergo additional practice in weapon handling on holidays.

At the end of weapon training, the Probationers will undergo realistic firing practice which would integrate physical fitness, mental alertness and firing skills.

DD.. YYooggaa Yoga is a timeless practice evolved over thousands of years dealing with physical,

moral, mental and spiritual well being of man as a whole.

This training will help a probationer to develop a skill set that will enable him to enhance his strengths, address impediments and bring about alignment, balance and harmony as a whole.

The aim of imparting knowledge and practice in yoga is to expose a probationer to correct understanding and employment of scientific technique to manage his / her health and stress. This is taught in a slow and phased manner and also done in a relaxed mood. This will be only an introductory course to enable a probationer to adopt yoga as a health and stress management alternative in the future.

E. Unarmed Combat

A direct application of physical fitness is in the capability of preventing loss of life and property. In many law and order situations, a probationer would be required to lead his / her men in taking action against the mob. It is unavoidable to come in close physical proximity to the mob in such situations.

The training in UAC would give him / her the required skill and confidence to accomplish this task as a leader. Though this is just one example, there would be numerous other situations in which training in UAC would come in useful not only in its actual application but also because it gives a probationer confidence in his / her own physical ability of handling such situations. He / she may also get encouraged to coach his / her men in these skills and propagate the use of UAC in his / her organization.

This will include: • Basic Punches/ Jabs • Blocks • Kicks • Falls • Throws • Defense against knife • Use of Police Baton/ Defense against Pistol • Controlled Sparring/ Boxing/ Street Fight • Boxing with a Buddy • Street Fight (Gang Attack) • Control Sparring with Buddy (Full Contact)

EEXXTTRRAA CCLLAASSSSEESS

During the Outdoor Training, it is essential that every Probationer attends the scheduled number of classes in every subject. This is mandatory and is a pre-requisite for appearing in any Periodical/ Final Exam. Therefore, extra classes are scheduled during holidays to:

• Enable the Probationers to attend compensatory classes in lieu of classes missed by them on account of illness, etc.

• Enable the Probationers found lacking in any subject to make up.

• As a punishment for any lapses.

Probationers may note that once an extra class is scheduled, it is to be treated as important as regular class and no casualness in respect of punctuality, turnout, dress order, compulsory attendance, etc. is permissible. However, scheduling of extra classes is at the discretion of AD (OD).

• A probationer will be allowed to take examination in any outdoor subject only if S/he has fulfilled the minimum required attendance (95%) in classes of that subject.

• A continuous evaluation of Probationers’ attendance in outdoor subjects would be carried out and at any time of training, if any Probationer is found to have missed, for any reason whatsoever, more than 10% of the overall regular classes for that phase of outdoor training, S/he would be relegated to training with the next batch. It is, however, made absolutely clear that, for this purpose, the completion of extra classes for fulfilling the attendance criteria for appearing in the outdoor examinations are not counted towards attendance for regular classes.

34

NAP (Not Attended Period) 1. If a Probationer is absent from any class for whatever reason (leave, illness etc) S/he

will be marked absent and that class will be counted as NAP.

2. Lady probationers may take one day off from performing physical activities during

their menstrual cycle. It will not be counted as a NAP, but they need to be present at

the venue of the class and listen to the instruction.

3. Compensatory Training in lieu of NAP can be scheduled in the evening (either during

the games period or thereafter depending upon the rigor of the day and rigor of the

extra class). However, Compensatory Training in lieu of NAP during games may

usually be availed only up to a limit of 40% of the total periods; prior approval of

Director must be taken. Compensatory Training in lieu of NAP can also be

scheduled during weekends. However, usually one day in each week, (Sunday)

Probationer should get rest.

4. NAP in cases of serious injury: If a probationer has sustained serious

injury/injuries on the outdoor field/activities resulting in missing more than 75 periods,

Director may decide to reduce the obligation to attend some Compensatory Training,

on case to case basis.

5. No Compensatory Training class will be scheduled till end February, 2020.

6. No Compensatory Training class will be scheduled in lieu of NAP within 3 days of

discharge from hospital. In discharge after hospitalization of over 3 days,

Compensatory Training classes will be scheduled after consultation with the doctor

7. Compensatory Training in lieu of NAP may be scheduled during some attachments’,

those which can be easily repeated. This option would only be for probationers

missing large number of classes and with approval of Director.

SSIICCKK RREEPPOORRTT No Probationer will go directly to the hospital during Outdoor training without the prior

permission of the AD (OD) or CDI.

If a probationer is unwell the procedure to be followed is:

• S/he brings it to the notice of the Squad DI.

• The Sick NCO, after permission of AD(OD) or CDI, will take them for medical treatment.

• Staying back in the IPS mess or proceeding to the hospital directly will be treated as an act of indiscipline and entail disciplinary action.

35

GGAAMMEESS

- Games, both team & individual, are important for a Police Officer. These games initiate a probationer into activities which need skill and teamwork.

- At the Academy, we give a high priority to games and Probationers are expected to pick up at least 2 team & 1 individual games during the training.

- Games periods will be scheduled on the basis of preference given by the Probationers and available facilities. However the individual games will be scheduled depending on the available facilities only.

Team Games 1. Football 2. Handball 3. Hockey 4. Basketball 5. Volleyball

- The objective of the above team games is to initiate the probationers into games which are regularly played by policemen in the States. By being able to participate in these games, the Probationers will find it easier to interact with the police personnel they lead. This will result in improved informal interaction and espirit-de-corps.

- The team games are also good for physical fitness, bonding within the squad and a healthy sense of competition.

- Among five team games, probationers need to choose 2 games of their choice. However, they need to give at least 03 preferences so that all the Probationers can be accommodated.

- After every 3 or 4 months, probationers will be asked for their options again. They can retain earlier options or go for a fresh one.

- If any of the 5 games does not get enough Probationers opting for 90% of the team strength, (say for a game of strength of 20 for both sides to be actually scheduled at least 18 persons should opt for it) the said game will not be offered in that time cycle. If a particular game gets more options and if infrastructure permits, then that game may be scheduled at more than one venue.

Individual Games 1. Lawn Tennis 2. Badminton 3. Squash 4. Table Tennis

- These games can be effectively used for unwinding oneself in the field besides keeping oneself fit.

Matches - Matches can be played on Saturdays / Sundays / holidays between two teams of

Probationers or a team of Probationers versus team of faculty (including trainers) or any outside team.

- For this purpose, a written request, indicating the names of the players and their willingness, must be given by the Games Captain to CDI / Sports Officer at least two days in advance, so that necessary logistic arrangements can be made.

Assessment - Marks are allotted for performance in Games and Sports, based on the performance in

chosen games. The performance is assessed throughout the basic course and weightage is given to participation/ performance in games championships.

- These marks are considered for Director’s assessment as well as for Maharaj Singh Cup for Games and Sports. The detailed distribution of marks for Maharaj Singh Cup for games and sports will be notified subsequently.
