An assistant sub-inspector (ASI) from Anantnag district, a selection-grade constable from Bandipora, a constable from Kathua and another from Udhampur, and a special police officer (SPO) from Baramulla had a grim togetherness. All of them were killed in the line of duty on January 2 in different years and in different circumstances. ASI Omkar Nath died in 1991, the SPO died in 2004; others in 1992 and 2002.

This year, however, their names were mentioned in a same tweet from the official account of the Jammu and Kashmir Police, which has lost hundreds of its personnel battling militants during the past three decades.

The tweet was a remembrance from the police for its slain men. Such tweets and remembrances are written regularly: sometimes thrice a week, sometimes many names and many years on a single day.

On January 8, remembrance was tweeted for Constables Hans Raj of Bhatoli and Ghulam Mohi-ud-din, SPOs Hakam Chand, Hans Raj and Sanjay Kumar — they were killed in 2002, 2003 and 2005. On January 10, a remembrance was tweeted for Constable Satpal Singh of Chawala, RS Pura, who was killed in 2001.


The police initiated its remembrance campaign on the social media in May last year and has since been regular in posting details of its slain personnel on their anniversaries. “We have made it a regular feature from May. We do it on all social media platforms, such as Twitter and Facebook,” Manoj Pandita, a police official, said.

The police have lost 1,632 personnel in militancy-related incidents during the past three decades. It has also lost 491 SPOs during these years, the official said.

Director General of Police Shesh Paul Vaid told The Tribune that the remembrance tweets and Facebook posts were an effort to “pay our tributes to our fallen soldiers”. “This is the least we can do that we remember them,” he said.

The police chief has included “interaction with the public on the social media” among the “10 commandments” for the department for this year.

Outreach initiative

The remembrances are part of the outreach initiative of the state police on the social media, where it faces a formidable challenge from pro-militant and separatist narratives. The narratives sympathetic to militants and separatists have overshadowed any effort by the state government apparatus to reach out on the social media.

Director General of Jammu and Kashmir Police S P Vaid today said that social media outreach had helped the force counter the propaganda of subversive elements and improve the security situation in the state.

“Social media was misused to a large extent in 2016 to mislead the public and we managed to counter it to a large extent. Our effort to bring into a positive narrative helped in improving the situation to a large extent,” Vaid said, addressing passing–out-cum-attestation parade of 911 recruits3E

He said the police department set up media cells in all district headquarters, opened 26 Facebook pages at district police level, 189 Facebook pages at police station level, 31 Twitter handles, five Facebook pages at police range level and two Facebook pages at the zonal level.

This was part of the larger effort to restore peace and normalcy in the state, Vaid said. He asked the recruits to give their best while serving the people. He listed various welfare measures taken by the government and the department for the policemen and said, “We are abreast of your problems and are working to mitigate and ensure better living and work atmosphere for policemen.”

He said the procurement of vehicles and safety gadgets has been made for the safety of the policemen who are performing their duties on roads. He asked the policemen to treat civilian complainants with warmth and the miscreants firmly. Highlighting the fight against drug abuse, he said 34 drug peddlers and criminals have been booked under the Public Safety Act (PSA), while a number of youth engagement programmes have been organised for channelising the energies of the young people.

On community policing, the DGP said that as many as 1,704 police community partnership group (PCPG) meetings were held last year to listen and help mitigate their problems. Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti inspected the parade and took the salute at the march past. Hailing from different parts of Kashmir division, 715 constables, who have been selected through a Transparent Recruitment Process (TRP), passed out after the completion of their basic training which started in November 2016. Principal of the Subsidiary Training Centre, Anil Kumar Katoch, gave a brief resume of the training imparted to the recruits including special classes on human rights and crime against women.

Constable Altaf Hussain Malik was adjudged all-around best trainee and was granted out of turn promotion, decorated with selection grade constable rank on the spot by the chief minister and the DGP. Constable Tanveer Ahmad and Mairaj-U-Din were declared 2nd and 3rd all-around best and were awarded commendation certificate Class I, along with cash reward of Rs 10,000 and Rs 7,500 respectively.

Dhupguri police station in Jalpaiguri named fourth best across country

“This kind of competition between police stations will improve the law and order situation, bring down the crime rate and increase prosecution rate,” a senior officer said.

AMONG 14,850 police stations across the state, the Dhupguri police station from Jalpaiguri district has emerged as the fourth best in India. The survey was conducted by central police organisation Bureau of Public Research and Development (BPRD), following instructions from the Union Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) to identify the best police stations in India. From Bengal, only Dhupguri and New Town police stations had made the cut.


“It is a matter of pride for us… This comes with huge responsibility, as we have to fulfil people’s expectations. The team, under SP Amitava Maity, made that feat possible,” said Sanjoy Dutta, Inspector-in-Charge of Dhupguri Police Station, adding that they are yet to be officially intimated about the results of the survey.


The results were tweeted out by the Union Home Ministry on January 6. The survey was based on parametres like rate of crime, performance of the police station, maintenance of records, hygiene and sanitation around the station, optimum utilisation of available resources, smart policing, complaints against police officers, law and order situation, persons detained under National Security Act or Prevention of Anti-Social Activities Act and the number of pending cases. R S Puram police station in Coimbatore had topped the survey. The Dhupguri police station, with one inspector, eight sub-inspectors and six assistant sub-inspectors, covers an area of 279 sq km.



“This kind of competition between police stations will improve the law and order situation, bring down the crime rate and increase prosecution rate,” a senior officer said. “In June, last year, our police station was chosen for the competition. The SP had sent the nomination to the state director general of police, who, in turn, had forwarded the same to the MHA. A team had visited the police station in November, 2017. The members also spoke to local residents of the area,” the official added.


The New Town police station, meanwhile, was inspected by a three-member team about a month ago. Considered as one of the modern police stations in Bidhannagar, it covers an area of 37 sq km with 100-odd personnel.

Madhya Pradesh Police HAWK Commandos
All carrying OFB Made Excalibur Rifle
Every Indian Made small arm rejected by Army is in service with Chattisgarh Police. They also have Excalibur MK-1 and ordered new JVPC & Sniper rifle from OFB. Chattisgarh is like our Afghan war where we test our smallarms. Just like western forces do in Afghanistan.
