She worked with the United Nations in New York as the Police Advisor to the Secretary-General and in the Department of Peace Keeping Operations.

She has been in the vanguard of Police and Prison Reforms. Dr. Bedi is a recipient of the prestigious Ramon Magsaysay Award (also called the Asian Peace Nobel Prize) and several other national and international decorations.
