A majority of police women were working as Constables (86.67%), had 6-10 years of experience (37.78%) and belonged to 21-31 years (41.11%). Assessment of nutritional status indicated that 31.11 per cent were normal and obesity was distributed across all the age groups among all the cadres. It was observed that 26.67 per cent of police women were in obese grade I category. Strong positive association was recorded between age and BMI. The risks of metabolic complications were substantially increased in 47.78 per cent of women police as indicated by WHR of more than or equal to 0.85. It was observed that the nutrient adequacy of women police varied widely for energy (81 to 157%), protein (55.64-95.64), fat (109.85 to 379.60%), thiamine (96.00 to 211.00%) and magnesium (31.20-298.49%) contents of diets. Rest of the nutrient contents were lower than the RDA. Police women consumed a diet that of fair quality (54.45%), followed by good (22.22%) and poor (18.89%) qualities. Only 4.44 per cent women police consumed a diet of very good quality. Nutritional knowledge of 71.11 per cent was high and 27.78 per cent recorded medium knowledge scores.
