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.

Civil Police was separated from Military Police in the year 1924, after 9 years of efforts to form the nucleus of Civil Police started in 1915 to deal with Crime and Criminals and Mr. HGL Biggie was the first officer of the Indian Police to appointed as Commandant and Superintendent of Police.

The Japanese occupation of these Islands from 1942 to 1945 ruined the Police and Administrative set up in A&N Islands. As a result fresh batch of officers and men known as deputation force were drawn after British re-occupation in 1945 from Special Armed Police of Uttar Pradesh and Punjab.
