Considering the importance of constructing good quality houses in the shortest possible time span for its police personnel, several State Governments have established Police Housing Corporations. There are Police Housing Corporations in several States. Presently, the house construction work of Delhi Police is mainly handled by PWD and CPWD and some other Central Public Sector Undertakings.
