The National Police Memorial in New Delhi was dedicated to the nation in which year?
- A.2014
- B.2016
- C.2018
- D.2020
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is 2018. The National Police Memorial at Chanakyapuri in New Delhi was dedicated to the nation by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Police Commemoration Day that year, in recognition of the sacrifices of police personnel and their role in preserving national security and integrity. The memorial has three elements: a central sculpture, which is a granite monolith 30 feet high standing for strength and selfless service; the Wall of Valour, which carries the engraved names of police personnel killed on duty since Independence; and a museum designed as an evolving exhibition on policing in India. It is open to the public on all days except Monday, and the Central Armed Police Forces hold a band display, parade and retreat ceremony on Saturday and Sunday evenings. The other options do not match the year of dedication stated for the memorial, so A, B and D are wrong.
