The Sindh Police (Urdu: سندھ پولیس, Sindhi: سنڌ پوليس), is a law enforcement agency established in 1843 under a proclamation issued by Sir Charles James Napier, who became the conqueror of the State of Sindh by defeating the forces of the Talpur rulers at the Battle of Miani near Hyderabad on 20 March 1843. Ever since its inception, the organization was raised on the model of the Royal Irish Constabulary to maintain law and order and law enforcement in Sindh, Pakistan. The department serves an area of ~140,914km2 and has about 280,000 police officers and staff. As of 24 March 2024, Ghulam Nabi Memon is the Inspector-General of Police.[2]
The Sindh Police has been fictionalized as well as dramatized in numerous movies, novels, dramas, and television shows through its history.[3]
