The Police Antrik Suraksha Seva Padak was an award given to police personnel for their service in areas like Jammu and Kashmir (J&K), Left Wing Extremism (LWE) regions, and the North East (NE). Instituted by the Union Home Minister, it recognized continuous service and dedication in these volatile security zones.
