Crimes by children in recent times have risen significantly. Children are often used as instruments to perform unlawful and illegal acts. The criminality of these acts branches from deep-rooted psychological dilemmas and conflicts. The minds of the children possess an innocent and manipulative character that can be easily tampered.

On the other hand, the Coast Guard which was staffed by naval officers on deputation during its fledgling years is now totally officered by CG officers from the DG and below. The only paramilitary force is Assam Rifles. Its officers are on deputation from the army.
