Abstract Janamaithri Suraksha Project is a community policing model and its effectiveness contribute to the betterment of the quality of life in the neighbourhood. The present research work attempts to study the effectiveness of the Janamaithri Suraksha Project and also tries to understand the activities carried out under JSP. The study follows a descriptive research design. The study utilized the simple random sampling for choosing participants. A total number of 50 samples which comprises of both male and female have been selected from the Peroorkada police station Jurisdiction. In order to collect data a structured interview schedule was given to the respondents. The interview schedule consists of the component’s awareness, sense of security, police visibility and activities of beat officers to measure the effectiveness of the Janamaithri Suraksha Project. The study reveals that majority of the respondents (90%) have heard about Janamaithri Suraksha Project which shows the effectiveness of Project. The findings indicate that majority of the respondents were unaware about the awareness of Janamaithri beat (78%), Janamaithri Suraksha Samithi (62%) and Janamaithri Kendrams (76%) and this shows the lack of effectiveness of Janamaithri Suraksha Project. The awareness of the respondents about various activities organized under JSP indicates that awareness of night patrolling with public cooperation, fitting burglar alarm, organizing self-defense programs and disaster management is less and awareness about school-based safety, knowing new residents and preventing illicit sale of liquor and drugs are high. The study indicates that for the effective implementation of the programs under JSP, the activities need to be more intense so that public will be aware of all the programs organized by JSP.
Keywords Janamaithri Beat, Janamaithri Suraksha Samithi, Janamaithri Kendrams.
