The PTI hopes to reform police in Pakistan, an institution the party has termed “ill-equipped, poorly trained, deeply politicised, and chronically corrupt,” in its manifesto, adding that “Police reforms have been neglected by successive governments to continue using the force as a political tool.”

One part of the reforms promised is the establishment of women police stations and desks “at all levels to facilitate female empowerment.”
