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 In fact, there are documented historical references to policing practices adopted by the Magadh Empire.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  

EMBLEM OF UTTAR PRADESH Uttar Pradesh (Northern Province) was the cradle of Hindu civilization. The region is the geographical area of the Middle Land or the Madya desha from the Mahabharata and Ramayana epics. In the twelfth century AD, the valley of the Ganges was conquered by the Mughals. With the disintegration of their Empire, some governors or nawabs succeeded to gain considerable autonomy. The state emblem dates from the time of the United Provinces. It represents the confluence of the Ganges and the Jumna, symbolized by a pall wavy, between two fishes which is a Buddhist symbol signifying freedom from restraint and the life-giving properties of water which were originally symbolizing the two rivers. Between the arms of the pall there is a bow and arrow, the arms of the heroes of the Mahabharata. The emblem is similar to the ancient emblem of the last Nawabs of Awadh where fish occur in their motifs.
