This Department came into existence on February 19, 1946, initially as `Inspectorate of Wireless’ and was later accorded the status of Directorate of Coordination (Police Wireless), a subordinate organisation, under Ministry of Home Affairs - MHA, in 1950. It was entrusted with the responsibility of coordinating for developing and establishing the Police Telecommunication network in the country and also to advise MHA on all Police Telecommunication matters, predominant being round the clock communication between the Centre and State and Union Territory - UT capitals through a network of presently 27 Inter State Police Wireless Stations located in the State and UT capitals. Presently this Directorate has been entrusted with the responsibility of setting up of an integrated Police Wireless network in the country, known as POLNET with the aim of having direct ‘Police Station to any Police Station’ communication and as back bone for on line crime criminal information system of the country. The Directorate also runs a Central Police Radio Training Institute (DCPW) which was initially started as a small training school for the in-service training requirements of DCPW personnel. This was later upgraded into a full-fledged National Level Police Wireless Training Institute in 1971 to cater the needs of States and Central Police Organisations and other security organisations to improve the efficiency of their technical and operational manpower. Its emblem is crested with Ashoka Lion Capital in purple supported by two counter strokes of power in blue.
