Speaking on the occasion, Sharat Babu said that police commemoration day was observed on October 21 since 1959 when the Indian troops fought with the Chinese troops at the border laying down their lives. However, one week prior to October 21, we celebrate Police Commemoration Week and students are taught about police duties, details about weapons, he added.

They organise an essay-writing, debate and painting competitions to the school and college students including police personnel.
