History
editThe Tambaram City Police was established through the division of the Greater Chennai Police jurisdiction, as part of the Tamil Nadu State government's efforts to reform the policing structure, resulting in the creation of the Tambaram and Avadi Police commissionerates. On 1 January 2022, Tambaram City Police was formally established by State Government of Tamil Nadu.[6][7][8]
When the Tambaram City Police was initially established, it encompassed twenty police stations from the Tambaram and Pallikaranai police districts.[6][9]
