Haryana Police’s state-wide campaign, “Operation Track down,” has gotten off to a strong start. In the first two days of the operation, which ran from November 5th to 20th, the police demonstrated a strong crackdown, arresting a total of 56 notorious criminals and 602 other accused. This brings the total number of criminals in police custody to 602.
The first two days were a resounding success. The operation began on November 5th, with 32 criminals arrested in a single day. The following day, November 6th, saw the arrest of 24 more notorious criminals, and the arrest of 252 other accused. Nine history sheets were also opened during these two days, which will update the criminal records of such criminals and expedite the process of canceling their bail in the future.
Led by DGP O.P. Singh, this campaign is strategically targeting criminals at the police station, district, and state levels. Each police station is targeting the five most notorious criminals in its area, while each district team is focused on arresting its top ten criminals. Similarly, the Special Task Force (STF) has compiled a list of the twenty most dangerous criminals across the state, against whom the strictest action is being taken.
To connect Operation Track down with the public and further strengthen police-public cooperation, IG Crime has also made public his personal mobile number 90342 90495, so that citizens can share information confidentially.
Inter-state harmony
Haryana Police has increased coordination with Punjab, Rajasthan, Delhi, Uttar Pradesh, Himachal Pradesh, Jammu and Kashmir and Chandigarh Police and has started activities like joint raids and warrant execution in the border areas.
The clear message of this campaign is that the priority is not just arrests, but also dismantling the criminal network, cancelling their bail, seizing their assets, and preventing new crimes. The success of the first two days has already demonstrated that Haryana has become “no place to hide” for criminals.
