The Gujarat government has expanded the jurisdiction of the Ahmedabad City Police Commissionerate, bringing areas like Bhat Circle and Koteshwar—previously under Ahmedabad Rural and Gandhinagar district—under its control. The state home department issued an official notification on Tuesday.
Earlier, there had been confusion among Gandhinagar Police, Ahmedabad City Police, and Ahmedabad Rural Police about which force had authority over certain areas.
Because the SP Ring Road runs through areas under three different police jurisdictions, residents often faced confusion and difficulty in filing complaints.
To resolve this, the Ahmedabad City Police jurisdiction now includes areas such as the SP Ring Road and Ranasan (previously under Dabhoda Police Station), as well as Bhat Circle and Koteshwar (earlier under Adalaj Police Station).
