The National Law School of India University (NLSIU), Bengaluru, was delighted to host, on October 28, 2025, a senior delegation from the Bavarian Police that is visiting Bengaluru as part of an official exchange programme. Facilitated by the Hanns Seidel Foundation that is supporting a project on gender and policing at NLSIU, the delegation included Mr. Manfred Gigl, Chief of 2nd Special Response and Training Police, and Captain Ralf Eireiner, Lecturer, 2nd Special Response and Training Police, Bavarian Police.

Discussions centred on policy developments related to, and the experiences of, women in police in India, drawing from the project’s ongoing research in Karnataka. The delegation was particularly keen to understand ways in which they could support ongoing efforts at improving training on the role and importance of a diverse and equitable police institution. They agreed to share relevant training modules and activities and continue the conversation with NLSIU on ways to advance gender-responsive policing.

Prof. Mrinal Satish, Dean Research, welcomed the delegation along with Ms. Devyani Srivastava, Senior Manager (Research) who also leads the gender and policing project at NLSIU supported by Ms. Laksha Kalappa, Visiting Faculty at NLS, and Ms. Pavani Lavu, Project Assistant.
