"Human in Khaki" is a remarkable book from the pen of a police officer. It is a compilation of real life experiences which are like a whiff of fresh air… Ashok Kumar's book narrates indents where his humane and understanding approach wipes the tears of a rape victim, a man threatened with extortion, or a person whose land has been grabbed… The central theme of the book is the even while working within the confines of the system, a police officer can still do a lot to serve the people whose life, property and honour he is mandated to protect.
