trainees joining it. Around 10 per cent of 12,000 constables who are undergoing training
in various Police Training Centres and police colleges are Bachelors of Technology

According to training wing of State police around 50 per cent of the trainee constables
are graduates including 10 per cent of engineers though the minimum qualification is
intermediate.
A senior IPS official said ,”Most of them are B,Tech graduates , post graduates in
various faculties and other graduates who are going to complete their training in October
2013 and will be joining their duties,”

1053 Reserve Sis and 21 APSPS RSIs are also getting trained,”
Engineering graduates queuing up for constable jobs as they lack skills to take up jobs
in engineering profession observed academicians.
JNTU Hyderabad registrar Mr. N V Ramana Rao says "Every year, nearly 2 lakh engineering
graduates are being churned out from the engineering colleges. But according to Nasscom
survey, only 10 per cent of them are employable. This is because majority of the
engineering colleges are sub-standard and were set up just to secure funds from the
government under fee reimbursement scheme. They lack engineering skillls and companies
do not offer them any jobs after completion of their course. With this, these engineering
graduates are looking at APPSC and other recruitment board to secure government jobs,"
According to 2012 Crime in AP of CID AP has 122 policemen for every 10,000 population and
the national average is 137. With the new addition it will be improving further.
