The Telangana Police was formed in 2014 after Telangana became a separate state. Prior to this, the region was under the jurisdiction of Andhra Pradesh Police. The formation of Telangana Police came at a time of significant political and social change, with the state dealing with a range of law enforcement challenges, including regional disparities, political movements, and communal tensions. The police force had to quickly adapt to the new demands of governance and public safety.
Since its inception, Telangana Police has made significant strides in modernizing law enforcement practices, utilizing technologies for crime detection and investigation. The force is also known for its efforts in combating organized crime, human trafficking, and drug-related offenses. Telangana Police focuses on efficient policing, community safety, and maintaining public order in the rapidly growing state.
