Bihar Police Chief Samrat Choudhary has intensified operations against criminal gangs, marking a new phase of the state's encounter policy.
Samrat Choudhary, head of Bihar Police’s Special Operations Unit, has announced a renewed focus on dismantling criminal networks across the state.
The crackdown, part of the state’s encounter policy, involves coordinated raids in several districts, resulting in the arrest of dozens of suspects and the seizure of illegal weapons.
Choudhary said the operations aim to restore law and order in areas plagued by gang violence, emphasizing the importance of intelligence‑led policing.
Local officials report that the crackdown has already disrupted several planned criminal activities, and the police have increased patrols in high‑risk zones.
The move comes amid growing public demand for stronger action against crime, and the state government has pledged additional resources to support the police’s efforts.
