As part of a major administrative reform aimed at improving policing and crime control, the Telangana government reorganized the police system in and around the state capital region by creating four commissioners of police, while the existing commissioner Rachakonda was replaced.
Three commissioners restructured
The previous three commissions were restructured, resulting in the creation of Hyderabad, Cyberabad, Malkajgiri and Future City Commissionerates. As part of this restructuring, Bhuvanagiri district has been taken out of the commission’s limits and will function as a separate district police unit.
Key and sensitive places like the State Assembly, Secretariat, Begumpet, Shamshabad Airport and the new Budvel High Court have been brought under the Hyderabad Police Commissionerate.
Fast-growing IT hubs including Gachibowli, Financial District, Nanakramguda, Madhapur and Raidurg along with industrial areas like Patancheru, Genome Valley, Ramachandrapuram and Ameenpur will come under the Cyberabad Commissionerate.
Malkajgiri Commissioner
The existing Rachakonda Commissionerate was reorganized and renamed as Malkajgiri Commissionerate. Malkajgiri zone consists of Malkajgiri, Nacharam, Uppal, Medipally, Ghatkesar, Pocharam IT Corridor, Kushaiguda, Neredmet, Jawaharnagar, Keesara and Cherlapally. Bhuvanagiri, which earlier came under Rachakonda limits, was carved out as a separate police unit and a Superintendent of Police (SP) was appointed for Yadadri Bhuvanagiri district.
Officials said Chief Minister Revanth Reddy decided to restructure the commissionerate keeping in view the rapid growth of the proposed future city. Areas including Chevella, Moinabad, Shankarpally, Maheshwaram and Ibrahimpatnam were brought under its jurisdiction.
The decision follows the reorganization of the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) and the inclusion of the emerging Future City region. The government recently unveiled its Vision 2047 document at the Telangana Rising Global Summit held in December.
Commissioners appointed
The government also issued formal orders for the appointment of Commissioners of Police for all the four Commissionerates and SP for Yadadri Bhuvanagiri district.
According to a government order, Rachakonda Police Commissioner G. Sudheer Babu has been transferred and appointed as Future City Police Commissioner – a newly created Commissioner. Commissioner of Police, Cyberabad, Avinash Mohanty has been posted as Commissioner of Police, Malkajgiri.
