Bravehearts of the country made supreme sacrifices for the sake of internal security of the country. Our commitment and firm resolves in harnessing the unity and uniformity in the country will be the ultimate tributes to the bravehearts. Tripura Chief Minister Biplab Kumar Deb said after paying homage to the martyrs on the Police Commemoration Day 2021 in Agartala on Thursday.
National Police Commemoration Day, in the memory of brave Policemen who sacrificed their lives for the country, is observed on October 21 every year in the country. Along with the nation, the main programme on this Day in Tripura was held at Police Line at Manoranjan Debbarma Smriti Stadium at Arundhutinagar in Agartala today.

In the unexpected attack, 10 Indian jawans were martyred. “Even as observance of the Day in the country was started in 1960, the Day was started to be observed as the Police Commemoration Day since 2012”, he said.
“In 2020-21, a total of 377 jawans were martyred in the country. They were engaged in safeguarding the solidarity of the country. The supreme sacrifice of these jawans will inspire in strengthening the unity and solidarity of the country in coming days”, Deb said.
