Varanasi Zone police reward announcement on wanted criminals

Varanasi, June 26, 2026: Police authorities in Varanasi Zone have reportedly announced rewards on 36 wanted criminals as part of an intensified law-and-order drive. The move is aimed at encouraging information that may help police trace and arrest persons wanted in pending criminal cases.

According to media reports, details of the wanted persons have been circulated by police for public assistance. Dalimss News is not publishing names, addresses or photographs in this report because an official public list could not be independently verified at the time of writing.

Reward Announced as Part of Crime Crackdown

The reward announcement has been reported as part of a broader crime-control effort in the Varanasi Zone. Such reward notices are generally used by police when accused persons remain absconding or when investigators seek public help to locate persons wanted in serious cases.

Officials have reportedly appealed to citizens to share credible information with police if they know the whereabouts of any listed person. The reward is understood to be linked to information leading to arrest, though exact reward amounts and case-wise details should be checked with official police communication.

Police Appeal for Information

Police appeals in such cases usually ask the public to contact the nearest police station or senior officers with reliable information. Citizens should avoid spreading unverified social media posts, rumours or private personal details. Any information should be passed directly to police through official channels.

In crime-related matters, accuracy is important. A person named as wanted by police is not the same as being convicted by a court. The legal process, investigation and trial continue according to law, and any report should avoid presenting allegations as court-proven facts.

Safety and Law-and-Order Focus

Varanasi Zone covers a sensitive and busy region with dense urban areas, highway movement, markets, educational institutions and religious tourism. Police action against wanted accused persons is therefore linked not only to case investigation but also to public confidence and neighbourhood safety.

Authorities across Uttar Pradesh have increasingly used special drives, surveillance, reward announcements and inter-district coordination to track wanted accused persons. The reported list of 36 wanted criminals suggests that the Varanasi Zone is focusing on pending cases where arrests remain necessary.

Verification of Names and Details Important

At the time of drafting this report, Dalimss News found media reporting on the number of wanted persons and the reward announcement, but did not find a complete official public list suitable for republication. For that reason, this article does not reproduce personal details.

Readers with information should contact police directly and should not attempt to confront any wanted person themselves. The matter remains a policing and legal process, and further confirmed updates from Varanasi Zone police will be important for clarity on arrests, reward amounts and district-wise details.
