Double the number of women in Gujarat Police
Bharatiya Janata Party · Gujarat Legislative Assembly Election 2022
Last updated 15 Oct 2026
What does this status mean?
Meaningful delivery has occurred, but the stated commitment is incomplete.
Status describes delivery. Confidence describes how strong the available evidence is.
Original manifesto wording
“We will double the number of women in the state police force.”
Our Assessment
BPR&D records 14,745 women in Gujarat Police on 1 January 2023. The Dataful reproduction of BPR&D's next annual series reports 16,454 on 1 January 2024. That is a measurable increase, substantially short of doubling that nearby reference stock. The January 2023 figure is shortly after the election and is not silently treated as the exact election-date baseline. A comparable 2022 baseline and later official strength are still needed; reservation percentages and advertised vacancies do not establish doubling.
The reasoning behind the verdict
Why this assessment?
Reviewed
01 · Delivery status
Why partially done?
Comparable published snapshots show growth, but not a verified doubling from the promise-date baseline.
02 · Strength of evidence
Why medium confidence?
Relevant delivery evidence exists, but complete scope, coverage or independent verification remains limited.
What would help us reassess?
The documents that could clarify delivery of this commitment.
- Official election-period baseline and latest actual female strength
- Appointments and attrition reconciled across civil and armed police
Status describes delivery. Confidence describes the evidence.
