| INDIAN Prime Minister Manmohan Singh on Thursday said that the country's widening divide between rich and poor was a factor that encouraged crime and caused difficulties for police.
Mr Singh told a conference of police chiefs in New Delhi that national security was being threatened by an array of challenges, including tension in Kashmir, a worsening Maoist insurgency and criminal activity.
'Growing economic disparities, and regional, linguistic and ethnic differences' were among the problems faced by police, Mr Singh said. 'The growing presence of non-state actors, fundamentalist groups and left-wing extremists has further complicated matters,' he added.
