BIHAR POLICE |
Policing in Bihar is more than 3000 years old. In fact, there
are documented historical references to policing practices adopted by the
Magadh Empire. Policing in the Modern era in Bihar began in the year 1862 with
the introduction of the Indian Police Act of 1861. Following the creation of
the province of Bihar in 1912, the basic structure of police as it exists today
in the whole of India was laid. The Bihar Policemen’s Association which came
into existence in 1967 was the first of its kind to look after the interests of
the policemen. The emblem
of the Bihar Police shows the ‘Bodhi’ – banyan tree and depiction of river
Ganges. The words ‘Bihar Police’ in Devanagari is inscribed between them. All
these are set in gold colour in a indigo coloured shield.
