In a surprising twist, a seemingly simple question has stumped many social media users. Vishi, a content creator from Jaipur, posed the query, “What is the Hindi name for police?” on her Instagram account, leading to a viral sensation.
Despite the word ‘police’ being a commonplace term in everyday conversation, the correct Hindi translation eluded many.
Vishi, known for engaging the public with intriguing questions, shared a video where she asked various people about the Hindi name for police. Responses ranged from ‘Thanedaar‘ to ‘Chowkidar,’ and even ‘prashasan,’ highlighting the confusion. One respondent even admitted to not knowing the answer at all.

This video has garnered over 3 crore views, along with numerous humorous comments from viewers. While some answers provided a mix of terms such as ‘aarakshak,’ ‘rakshak,’ or ‘rajkiya jan rakshak,’ a deeper investigation revealed a clearer picture. Generative AI suggested that ‘police’ translates to ‘rakshak‘ or ‘rajkiya jan rakshak‘In no.
However, a Quora user named Dinesh Dagar provided a definitive answer, stating that ‘police’ remains ‘police’ in Hindi, as it is an English word assimilated directly into the Hindi language, negating the need for translation.
This underscores the blending of languages and how certain words are retained in their original form across different dialects.
