Police and Revenue districts have the same boundary, but Odisha has had a few revenue ones with more than one SP
In 1964, the Rourkela ADM and SP posts were created after deadly communal riots due to events in East Pakistan. Bhubaneswar SP post was carved out of Puri in 1975.
The post of Cuttack Sadar (later City) SP was created in 1981 out of the massive undivided Cuttack district. Similarly Berhampur SP followed in 1984.
Rairangpur is the fifth in this select list!
So there will be 35 Police Districts in 30 Revenue Districts.
# Sundargarh : SP Sundargarh, SP Rourkela
# Ganjam : SP Ganjam, SP Berhampur
# Mayurbhanja : SP Mayurbhanja, SP Rairangpur
# Cuttack : SP Cuttack (Rural), DCP Cuttack (UPD)
# Khurda : SP Khurda (Rural), DCP Bhubaneswar (UPD)
Besides, the Railway Range has two Railway Police Districts at Cuttack and Rourkela.
