Two projects
The Friends of Police movement (FOP) which was started in December 1993 by Mr. Philip, was extended to the whole of State of Tamil Nadu by the then Chief Minister Jayalalithaa in 1994.
It has got national and global recognitions. Its main thrust is humanisation and socialisation of the police force.
Know Your Criminal (KYC), a concept developed by him two years ago, uses tools like Friends of Police, stakeholders, social network analysis and statistical analysis.
