A detailed proposal for the creation of the Perambalur Rural Station was forwarded by the Perambalur district police authorities earlier to the Director-General of Police mentioning the manpower and infrastructure requirement and the territorial jurisdiction of the station.

The sources said Chief Minister M.K. Stalin had announced the creation of the new station in Perambalur district in the Legislative Assembly during the debate for grants in 2023.
