The Andaman and Nicobar Police is the law enforcement agency for the union territory of Andaman and Nicobar Islands in India. ==History of Andaman and Nicobar Police== History of Andaman and Nicobar Police〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=HISTORICAL BACKGROUND )〕 dates back to raising of ‘Sebundy Corps’ in 1858 for protection of Penal Settlements in the Andamans. It was reconstituted in 1867 with strength of 2 Inspectors, 3 Head Constables, 12 Sergeants and 285 Constables. The system of policing was exclusively on the pattern of military organization, with a small strength of 75 Civil Policemen for observance of local laws and for accompanying the prisoners to the jungle as guards against aboriginal tribes. An organized form of Policing in Andaman and Nicobar Islands was established in August, 1875 with the extension of Indian Police Act of 1861 to Andaman and Nicobar Islands and Capt. Wimberly was appointed as first District Superintendent of Police. In the same year the Chief Commissioner of Andaman and Nicobar was vested with the powers and functions of the Inspector General of Police.

The Japanese occupation of these Islands from 1942 to 1945 ruined the Police and Administrative set up in A&N Islands.
