[Section 4(1)(b)(i)]

1.       Aims and objectives of the organization:- The purpose of Haryana  Police is to uphold the law fairly and firmly; to prevent occurrence of crime; to pursue and bring to justice those who break the law; to keep the peace in partnership with the community; to protect, help and reassure the people.

In order to make Haryana Police people-friendly, to enhance the credibility of the police and to check corruption, transparency in the system is emphasized at all levels.

3.       Brief History and background for its establishment :-On the pattern of the colonial Irish constabulary, Sir Charles Napier established a police system in Sindh in 1843. The British Army Officers closely supervised and controlled forces which were resultantly more disciplined, efficient and not corrupt. Influenced by the success of Napier’s police, the Court of Directors of the East India Company suggested that a common system of police be established on the pattern of Irish Constabulary. 

            The British Indian Government set up a Police Commission headed by Mr. H.M. Court in 1860. One of the policy directives to the Police Commission of 1860 was that "though the duties of the police should be entirely civil, not military, the organization and discipline of the police should be similar to those of a military body". The present police system in our country has been established under this Charter.   

           The Punjab Police Rules were framed in 1934, which still govern the police organisations in the north Indian States of Punjab, Himachal Pradesh, Delhi, Chandigarh and Haryana.   

            The State of Haryana was carved out of Punjab on 1st of November, 1966. At that time it comprised of one police Range and 6 districts and had a strength of 12165 personnel.
