Lecture by an Indian police constable (5)
I believe the answer is:
jawan
'lecture' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are singular nouns.
Perhaps you can see an association between them that I don't see?
I don't understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for jawan that I've seen is " Indian copper".)
I've seen this clue in The Times and The Sunday Times.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
