NEW DELHI: Jammu police carried out extensive security and crime-control operations in 2025, conducting 541 cordon-and-search operations and 1,093 long-range patrols, while reporting no active terrorist presence in the district, a senior police officer said on Wednesday.Presenting the annual crime and security review, Jammu Senior Superintendent of Police Joginder Singh said 4,134 FIRs were registered during the year, the lowest figure recorded in the past five years, indicating the impact of preventive policing and sustained enforcement measures.“The police ensured security and anti-terror measures remained in force throughout the year. There is no active terrorist presence in Jammu district. To maintain this security environment, 541 cordon-and-search operations and 1,093 long-range patrols were conducted during the year,” Singh told reporters.He said a reduction of 288 cases compared with the previous year was due to preventive action, detentions under the Public Safety Act and PIT-NDPS, proactive bail contesting and preliminary enquiries under the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita. Singh also cited sustained deployments during Operation Sindoor and flash-flood relief operations.Police disposed of 5,122 cases during the year, including 1,968 pending cases and 3,154 new ones, marking the highest disposal rate in the last five years, he said.Under a zero-tolerance policy against organised crime, police identified 123 hardcore criminals and gangsters, registered 59 FIRs against them, arrested 67 accused and recovered 49 illegal weapons. “One accused was detained under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA),” Singh said.On the anti-narcotics front, Singh said police registered 204 cases under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act as part of Operation Sanjeevani, arrested 309 persons and secured 48 convictions.“Over 15 kg of heroin worth about Rs 60 crore in the international market, along with ganja, poppy straw and opium, were seized, while four properties were attached and 23 drug-linked illegal structures were demolished,” he said.Addressing cybercrime, Singh said 36 FIRs were registered and 708 complaints were disposed of, with police securing financial relief of more than Rs 11.9 crore through refunds and lien-marking. “As many as 746 stolen mobile phones worth Rs 1.75 crore were recovered and returned to owners,” he said.The SSP said thefts involving assets worth around Rs 20 crore were reported in 2025, of which nearly Rs 10 crore worth of property was recovered and returned, resulting in a recovery rate of about 50 per cent, the highest in five years.He added that more than 6,000 police personnel were trained during the year in new criminal laws, NDPS cases, cybercrime, counter-terrorism, law and order and digital policing.Singh said all major events in 2025, including national days, pilgrimages, elections and VVIP visits, were conducted peacefully without any major law and order incident.
