The Armed Reserve Police is a paramilitary force that is used to maintain order during riots and other public disturbances.<\/p>\n<p>The Police Department is funded by the state government and is accountable to the state legislature. The public can file complaints against the police with the State Human Rights Commission (SHRC) and the Kerala Police Complaints Authority (KPCA).<\/p>\n<p>The other options are incorrect because they are not responsible for maintaining law and order in Kerala.<\/p>\n<p>A) Education Department is responsible for the administration of schools and colleges in Kerala.<\/p>\n<p>B) Health Department is responsible for the provision of healthcare services in Kerala.<\/p>\n<p>D) Revenue Department is responsible for the collection of taxes and other revenue in Kerala.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[amp_mcq option1=&#8221;Education Department&#8221;
