Chandigarh, October 13, 2025: Punjab Finance Minister Harpal Cheema on Monday said that the state government has decided to revise the jurisdictions of police stations across the state.
Cheema said that earlier, political interference had influenced the boundaries of police stations, resulting in several villages being assigned to distant stations.
In many instances, the police station of a village would fall under a different tehsil, creating administrative inconvenience for residents.
He said the government would now realign the jurisdictions of police stations, keeping these factors in view. Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann has already issued instructions to the Home Department to initiate the changes.
