While securing the National Capital and providing safely to the residents of Delhi, a need was felt to regulate public places like Hotels/Guest Houses, Eating Houses, Cinema Halls, Auditoriums, Swimming Pools, Amusement Parks etc. which receive frequent and heavy foot falls, from Law &Order, public convenience, safety and Traffic Management point of view. Besides, the grant/sanction of Arms Licenses and licenses for Explosives to the genuine people was also required to be regulate.
Accordingly, various provisions relating to Licensing and Registration of such entities were made in Delhi Police Act-1978. Certain powers which were earlier vested with the District magistrate were transferred to the Commissioner of Police u/s 146 of the Delhi Police Act, 1978. Certain powers which were earlier vested with the District Magistrate were transferred to the Commissioner of Police u/s 146 pf the Delhi Police Act, which were further delegated upon Joint/Additional Commissioner of Police, who heads Licensing Unit, Delhi Police and is responsible for the implementation of these provisions of Licensing and Regulations of activities.
