Kiran Bedi
Kiran Bedi is an Indian politician, social activist and a retired Indian Police Service (IPS) officer. Bedi joined India's police service in 1972 and became the first woman IPS officer. Bedi held the post of Director General at the Bureau of Police Research and Development before she voluntarily retired from the IPS in December 2007 at the age of 58. Bedi was the host and judge of the popular TV series Aap Ki Kachehri ("Your Court"), which is based on real-life disputes and provides a platform for settling disputes between consenting parties.
Bedi was one of the key members of India Against Corruption mass movement during the summer and autumn of 2011. In November 2011, she became a target of police investigation for criminal conspiracy and breach of trust, but those charges were dropped after an investigation. Bedi has founded two NGOs in India: the Navjyoti Delhi Police Foundation for welfare and preventative policing in 1988 which was later renamed as the Navjyoti India Foundation in 2007, and the India Vision Foundation for prison reformation, drug abuse prevention and child welfare in 1994. Bedi was awarded Ramon Magsaysay award in 1994 for Government service.
In 2014, Bedi expressed her desire to serve the country in the Narendra Modi led government, by offering herself to join the BJP. After meeting with the Prime Minsiter of India Narendra Modi, Kiran joined the Bhartiya Janata Party on 15 January 2015. BJP leader Amit Shah and union minister Arun Jaitley welcomed her in the party fold. On 19 January, she was declared BJP's Chief Ministerial candidate for 2015 Delhi elections.

Do you need expert advice?
If you have an unusual car or a house that is of a non-standard construction, using an insurance broker may get you a better deal.
Some types of insurance – such as critical illness and income protection – vary widely and have complex terms and conditions. If you’re buying this type of insurance, it’s worth getting an adviser to help you find the best policy to suit your needs.
Have you answered all your insurer’s questions truthfully and accurately?
Whether you’re applying online, by phone or by application form, make sure you take reasonable care to answer all the insurer’s questions honestly and to the best of your knowledge. If you don’t, your policy may be cancelled, or any future claim could be rejected or not fully paid out.
Does the policy cover everything you need it to?
Read the policy document. At least check the features that are important to you in the policy summary. Otherwise, you are potentially wasting your money and might not be covered when you really need it.
If you have already bought a policy, you have 14 days (30 days for life, income protection, payment protection and critical illness policies) to change your mind if you decide the policy isn’t suitable for you. However, for home and car insurance you might have to pay an administration charge and the cost of any days already covered.
Have you compared like with like?
Watch out for how different charges, types and levels of cover, and your excesses are calculated when you compare policies.
For example, some insurers set their voluntary excess (the amount of any claim not covered by the insurer) at a high level to make sure they come out cheapest on comparison sites.
When comparing policies and prices, make sure that the features you are comparing – such as excess amounts – are similar.
If you are buying from a comparison site, remember to check the level of cover you’re being offered – insurers often cut down on cover to make sure that they’re the cheapest.
Have you shopped around?
Don’t compare on price alone as the cheapest policy isn’t usually the best cover for your needs, and it is important to compare both the price and the level of cover. Try to get at least three quotes.
There are many different ways to buy insurance, here are the main ones:
- an insurance broker or independent financial adviser
- Comparison sites and online insurers
- Banks and building societies
- Supermarkets and department stores
Get quotes from more than one comparison website and look at them alongside quotes from insurers who don’t appear on comparison sites.
Beware of buying insurance offered alongside something else
For example you may be offered:
- Buildings and contents insurance, life assurance and critical illness cover when you take out your mortgage
- Warranty insurance when you buy a new washing machine or computer
- Travel insurance when you book a holiday, or
- Payment protection insurance with goods bought from catalogues
