Saakaar Foundation and Ashok Purie &amp; Associates&#8217;s joint entry was declared as the winner. Indian Structural Engineer worked on the structural design for the same.<\/p>\n<p>The concept for the design emerged out of an outward projecting pylon structure, rising 20 m above the raised platform, supporting a symbolic canopy. Steel ropes were used for the same, helping to restrain the pylons in the middle. Under the canopy, in the centre, a flame is used to depict the life of the policemen. The flame has kept as a primary element providing light to the surrounding around with the water body it rests upon acting as the oil to fuel the fire. A black-granite pedestal holds a rifle and a helmet of a soldier which is a reminder about the braveness of the soldiers. No tall trees were used around the memorial to maintain the height of the memorial. Light has been used in a dramatic way to highlight the memorial and the landscaped site during night.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"jammu_02\" src=\"https:\/\/mccoymart.com\/post\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/jammu_02.jpg\" alt=\"jammu_02\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"jammu_04\" src=\"https:\/\/mccoymart.com\/post\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/jammu_04.jpg\" alt=\"jammu_04\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In an effort to pay due respects and commemorate the sacrifices of the police personnel for the country, the J &amp; K Police Housing Corporation held an architectural competition for the design of the Police Memorial.
