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 In fact, there are documented historical references to policing practices adopted by the Magadh Empire.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. http://biharpolice.bih.nic.in/ https://www.scribd.com/doc/298953769/Swamy-s-Symbols-of-India-Volume-1
