cases where the boundaries of zails are unaffected to the schedule and notification should
be amended to omit reference to zails :-
* * * * *
The Governor in Council is pleased, under the provisions of clause (5) of sub-section (1)
of section 4 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, to direct the transfer of the villages enumerated
in column 3 of the sub-joined schedule, and situated in the zails mentioned in
column 2, from the local areas of the police station mentioned in column 4 of the local area
of the police stations mentioned in column 5 thereof, with effect from the date of issue of
this notification :-

2. Recommendations for alterations in police station jurisdictions shall be supported by
the following information :-
(a) A map on which the proposed alterations are clearly marked.
(b) A statement showing the crime for the past three years of the police stations affected,
with an explanation of the effect on these figures of the changes proposed.
(c) A statement showing area and population of the police stations affected, as before
and after the proposed change.
3.. In framing such proposals the main objects should be to secure an even and manageable
distribution of crime between police stations; to make the distribution of villages
conform to indigenous or natural groupings of population, and to secure accessibility between
the Police Station and its villages and between the police station and the court of
the magistrate in charge of the jurisdiction. Except for good reasons the boundaries of police
stations should not cut across the boundaries of zails.

EXTRACT FROM THE REPORT OF THE INDIAN POLICE COMMISSION,
1902-03.
124. * * * * * * *
This is the connection which the law intends to exist between the magistrate empowered
to take cognizance of police cases and the police. It involves the first information being
sent to this magistrate, his being able to watch the case from the first, to order investigation
where the police are not investigating, or to proceed to take up the case himself, and
his being kept in touch with the police investigation up to the very last. His connection
with the case is intended to begin with the first information and to continue to the end;
throughout he is intended to exercise an intelligent interest in it. These provisions are
very generally lost sight of. The intention of the law is defeated when the first information
is sent, not as required by section 157 of the magistrate having jurisdiction, but
