Mysuru: The Unification of Karnataka, which had no defined borders before independence, occurred in 1956 and the various Police Platoons came under one wing of the State Police in 1962. Before that, the Karnataka Police Manual was made in 1960 and Karnataka Police Act in 1963, said retired Deputy Commissioner of Police M.M. Mahadevaiah.
He was speaking after receiving the guard of honour at the annual Police Flag Day celebrations organised jointly by the Mysuru City Police, Mounted Police, Karnataka Police Academy (KPA), Mysuru District Police, KSRP 5th Battalion and Police Training School at the CAR Grounds near the foot of Chamundi Hill here this morning.
