Pune: To address the growing urban expansion, rising crime rates, and law and order challenges, the state government approved the establishment of seven new police stations in Pune. Now, the Maharashtra State Home Department has officially determined their jurisdiction and issued orders regarding the same.
A few months ago, the Home Department sanctioned these seven new police stations under the Pune City Police Commissionerate, creating 816 new positions. The inauguration of these stations took place in October 2024 at the hands of then-Deputy Chief Minister and Home Minister Devendra Fadnavis. Since then, the police stations at Ambegaon, Nanded City, Baner, Kharadi, Wagholi, Kalepadal, and Fursungi have been operational.
To establish these new police stations, existing ones were divided:
- Ambegaon police station was carved out of Bharati Vidyapeeth police station.
- Baner police station was created from Chaturshringi police station.
- Wagholi police station was formed from Lonikand police station.
- Nanded City police station was separated from Sinhagad Road police station.
- Fursungi police station was formed by dividing Hadapsar police station.
- Kharadi police station was created by splitting areas from Chandan Nagar and Lonikand police stations.
New Boundaries of Police Stations
- Kalepadal Police Station:Â Covers the area from Manterwadi Chowk to Katraj Road and up to the Miraj railway line, including the right side of the area from Shani Mandir to Manterwadi Chowk.
- Ambegaon Police Station:Â Extends from Katraj Chowk to the old Katraj tunnel and up to the Rajgad Police Station boundary, further extending to the Sinhagad Road Police Station limits.
- Baner Police Station:Â Includes the entire Pashan Lake area up to the Sangvi Police Station limits in the east, up to Hinjewadi Police Station limits in the west, and the Wakad Bridge on the Mula River in the north, extending to the Chaturshringi Police Station jurisdiction.
- Wagholi Police Station:Â Covers Kolwadi, Perne, and extends to the Lonikand Police Station boundary in the east, the Indrayani River in the north, and up to the Alandi Police Station limits.
- Nanded City Police Station:Â Encompasses Dhayari village in the east and extends westward to Dalviwadi and Khadakwasla.
- Fursungi Police Station:Â Extends eastward to Fursungi and Kadamwak Vasti, up to the Lonikalbhor Police Station boundary, and southward from Autadwadi hills to the Saswad Police Station limits.
- Kharadi Police Station:Â Covers the area from the Mutha River to the revenue boundary of Kharadi village, including the Kharadi Bypass Chowk and up to the old octroi checkpoint.
With these jurisdictional boundaries now officially defined, the newly established police stations will be able to enhance law enforcement efficiency and better serve the city’s expanding population.
