Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Jammu, Joginder Singh (JKPS), chaired a comprehensive crime and security review meeting at District Police Lines Jammu. The meeting was attended by zonal SSPs, SDPOs, DySP DAR, SHOs, and In-Charge Police Posts of the district.

The meeting covered multiple aspects of policing including quality investigation, timely disposal of cases, property-related and NDPS cases, inquest proceedings, history-sheeters, absconders, and missing persons. Special focus was laid on ensuring that cases under both old and new criminal laws are disposed of within the prescribed 60–90 day timeline.
Progress on digital policing initiatives such as CCTNS, e-Sakshaya, SIDs, e-summons, and the use of FSL services was also reviewed. The SSP stressed the importance of accountability, transparency, and capacity building across all levels of policing.
Highlighting the need for strict action against drug trafficking, the SSP reiterated the policy of zero tolerance towards narcotics. He directed officers to identify offenders, strengthen surveillance, and curb the activities of organised criminal elements to ensure public safety.
The SSP also emphasised the importance of professionalism, quick response, and empathetic behaviour while dealing with citizens. He underlined that effective policing must combine efficiency with sensitivity to the concerns of the public.
Acknowledging recent disaster management efforts, the SSP praised the role of Jammu Police officers and personnel during the recent floods. Their timely alerts, evacuations, and rescue operations, in coordination with the civil administration, SDRF, NDRF, and other agencies, helped save hundreds of lives in the district.
