The Idea is Born
The idea of establishing a National Police Memorial to commemorate the supreme sacrifice being made by hundreds of Policemen every year was suggested in the annual Conference of the DGsP/IGsP and it was taken up with the Government. The setting up of National Police Memorial in Delhi was approved by the MHA in 1992. Subsequently, Ministry of Urban Development allotted a plot measuring 6.12 acres at Chanakyapuri (North of Shanthipath), New Delhi in 2002 and the foundation stone of the project was laid by Shri LK Advani, the then Home Minister on December 13, 2002.
