Some questions ;
Do Indian states have their own Police forces ? Also,are all Indian Police officers armed ? Seeing many pics on the internet,the common officer doesn't seem to carry any gun,in fact sometimes,a part from their uniforms,they carry nothing else. Sometimes batons.

What is the most common patrol car used by the Indian Police ?
Vast majority of day to day policing duties are the responsibility of the individual state by way of Indian constitution.
The federal structures mostly involve investigation authorities, overall administration, border security, special security, tax authority, forensics etc.
The wiki page is pretty decent summary:
Here are the squad cars:

I have been so long out of the country that I cannot really give you much personal, detailed experience/memories...lets see what others say.
