The Bihar government has drafted a proposal to create five new police subdivisions across Samastipur, Darbhanga and Madhubani districts to streamline law‑enforcement operations.
The Bihar state government has announced a plan to establish five new police subdivisions in the districts of Samastipur, Darbhanga and Madhubani. The proposal, drafted by the Home Department, aims to decentralise policing and bring law‑enforcement closer to local communities.
Under the new structure, each district will see the creation of additional subdivisions, with Samastipur and Darbhanga receiving two each and Madhubani receiving one. The move is expected to reduce response times and improve coordination among police units.
Officials say the new subdivisions will enhance crime‑prevention efforts and enable more focused resource allocation. The proposal is slated for approval by the state cabinet before implementation in the coming months.
