ASSAM POLICE There is no evidence of there being a regular police force in the state of Assam till the British took over after the Yandabu treaty of 1826. At the end of the Ahom rule and during the reign of Kamaleswar Singha (1795 -1811), an armed force on the British model was raised to serve the dual functions of maintenance of law and order and border defence. It was, however, not a regular and fully organised police force in the real sense of the term. The most important development in this process was the raising of the ‘Cachar Levy’ in 1835 by the Civil Service Officer, in-charge of Nowgong district, Mr. Grange, to guard new settlements and tea estates. It consisted of 750 officers and men of different ranks, viz., Inspectors, Head Constables and Constables.

It was also known as the ‘Shan’ militia, as the recruits were mostly from the Shan com

ARUNACHAL PRADESH POLICE Having been constituted only in 1972, Arunachal Pradesh Police remains one of the youngest police services of the country. There are several historical factors for this delayed constitution of the force. Prior to the independence, the British had introduced the Assam Frontier (Administration of Justice) Regulation, 1945, to ensure that a vast majority of disputes and cases, both civil and criminal, were adjudicated in accordance with the prevailing traditional codes of the tribal communities. Those days the Assam Rifles was under the command of a civil officer- the Inspector General of the Assam Rifles - who was responsible to the governor of Assam, in his capacity as Agent to the Government of India. There was no change either in status of the organization till 1959. Govt. of India sanctioned in October 1967 a skeleton staff for the Civil Police setup. L. B. Sewa and Uts were instrumental in setting up Arunachal Pradesh Police in 1971. He had his headquarters

Prithinandan Singh was the first Indian Police chief who took over on June 1, 1946.  The strength of Police in J and K in the year 1889-90 was just 1040, which rose to 1570 in the year 1903 and forty years later, in 1943-44, the strength of J and K Police was 3179 and

SIKKIM POLICE Sikkim had become a protectorate of British India in 1861 and this had triggered off a spate of activity in the State.  The first political officer of Sikkim, Claude White thought that with the increase in population, crime would be more prevalent and felt it necessary to raise a police force. It was on the Novembr 27, 1897 that a force consisting of 1 Head Constable and 5 Constables was posted at Aritar near Rhenock on the authority of a resolution passed by the King of Sikkim in the council. Sikkim Police was thus born. Till the early thirties, the highest post in the police hierarchy was Senior Sub Inspector. A post of Police Inspector was created in 1934. It was only in 1949 that the force came to be looked after by officers from India on deputation. Shri Mohinder Singh was the first Commissioner of Police who joined in 1953 and till his tenure in 1960 set up the Traffic Branch, the Check Post Branch, the Intelligence Branch, and the Fire Brigade.
