Every year the day is observed to make people aware of community policing and its benefits.

Community police are playing a vital role in curbing crime and maintaining law and order. From the grassroots level, they provide information that helps police apprehend criminals quickly.

Community policing is a concept that allows police and community to work together, aiming at making the society free from terrorism, militancy, stalking, drug abuse, and child marriage.
