The establishment was subsequently moved to Delhi on May 3, 1947. Originally, the DSC was developed as a police force with the hierarchy, titles, and badges of ranks of police. On April 23, 1948, the Defence Constabulary Department was re-organised and re-designated as Ministry of Defence Security Corps (MDSC) with military titles and badges of ranks. Again, on August 16, 1958, MDSC was renamed Defence Security Corps and brought under direct control of Army Headquarters. Subsequently the DSC centre and DSC records were shifted from Delhi to Chakratha (Uttar Pradesh) in 1959 and finally to Kannur (Kerala) on November 21, 1961.
