Police Commemoration Day 2023

Current GK (HP Allied) Important Days

21-Oct-23

National Police Commemoration Day is marked every year on October 21 to commemorate the police officers who have sacrificed their lives in the course of service.

It was in 1960 that an Annual Conference of Inspectors General of Police of States and Union Territories was organised to observe October 21 as the National Police Commemoration Day.
The day is set to honour the Bravehearts who protect the citizens of the country and are responsible for the enforcement of law and order.
Police Commemoration Day is also observed as Martyr's Day in all police forces across India.
Both police officers and the citizens mark the Police Commemoration Day with a strong sense of patriotism. A national-level Police Commemoration Day parade has been organised since 2012 at the Police War Memorial in Chanakyapuri, New Delhi.

Police Commemoration Day 2023: History

In the conflict, 10 of our heroic warriors sacrificed their lives while defending our borders at the hot springs in Aksai Chin in Ladakh. Seven others also suffered injuries.
