: Mental health is the emotional, psychological, and social well-being of an individual often mental health and mental illness are used interchangeably but these two conditions are different. Policing is the law enforcement machinery of the nation hence requires 24/7 engagement and involves dealing with unpleasant situations, inhuman circumstances, and long working hours. The situation is especially demanding for females as they have additional responsibilities at home. This takes a tremendous toll on the mental health of female police personnel impacting their job performance and their family life and social well-being. This study aims to measure the mental health status of female police personnel working in Varanasi, the study indicates that none of the respondents have a very poor level of Mental Health Status and the majority 49% of the respondents have mental health status at an average level.
