HIMACHAL PRADESH POLICE

HIMACHAL PRADESH POLICE

Himachal Pradesh - HP as a political entity came into existence on  April 15, 1948. It was constituted by integrating the princely States of Chamba, Mandi, Suket, Sirmaur and 26 smaller states known as the Punjab Hill States. In 1948, states like Mandi, Chamba, Sirmaur, Suket and Bilaspur had their regular Police forces. Other smaller states had a common police force. The Rulers of Punjab Hill States, with the exception of Sirmaur and Bilaspur  realized the advantage of establishing a common system of Policing in their States. This was, in the true sense, the beginning of Himachal Pradesh Police. In order to ensure proper administration, an officer of the rank of Superintendent of Police in British India was appointed with the authority to exercise general supervision over the police cadre in these States. In 1948, after the constitution of the Union Territory, the Police force drawn from different States with varying backgrounds and traditions were amalgamated to form the HP Police. The police in the State was headed by an Inspector General who was also Inspector General for Union Territories of Delhi and Ajmer. S. R. Chaudhary, was the first IGP of HP. The emblem of Himachal Pradesh Police consists of the acronym ‘HP’ in the centre, crested with the Asoka Capital being the emblem of India. The emblem is surrounded by a purple garland and a yellow ribbon below charged with a star and the motto: ‘Nirbhaya Nishpaksha Satyanishta’ meaning ‘Fearless Non-partisan Upkeeper of Truth’.
