IGP's Messags
Jharkhand Sector came into existence in year 2011. Since then it has been in the forefront in dealing with LWE problems in the state of Jharkhand. I have taken over as IG of the Sector on 3rd September 2020 and feel privileged and proud of leading this Sector.
With operational jurisdiction over 04 Ranges, 20 GD Battalions and 02 elite CoBRA Units, Jharkhand Sector has played a defining role in curtailing Left Wing Extremism to restricted pockets in Jharkhand State. The Sector, with its Headquarters at Ranchi, also exercises Administrative authority over 02 Ranges, 02 Group Centers, 01 Composite Hospital and currently 08 GD Battalions which are deployed in various challenging turfs across the Country.
We will be working in close coordination with Jharkhand Police in intensifying targeted operations against Naxal commanders so as to curtail their nefarious designs.
Grievance redressal of force personnel will be my top priority. All the effort will be made by Sector, Range, GC & CH to ensure that our Jawan in field faces no problem and is mentally free to tackle with the challenges on ground.
