MISSION STATEMENT

 Chandigarh Police  
   resolves to
    give people
     an efficient,
      law abiding and  
       responsive law
        Enforcement machinery.

The purpose of Chandigarh Police is to uphold the law fairly and firmly:

• To prevent crime;

• To pursue and bring to justice all those who break the law;

• To keep the place in partnership with the community;

• To protect, help and reassure the people and to be seen to do all this with integrity, common sense and sound judgement.

• We must be compassionate, courteous and patient, acting without fear or favour or prejudice to the rights of others.

• We need to be professional, calm and restrained in the face of violence and apply only that force which is necessary to accomplish our lawful duty.

• We must strive to reduce the fears of the public and, so far as we can, to reflect their priorities in the action we take.

• We must respond to well founded criticism with a willingness to change.
