About Marriguda Police Station

Marriguda Police Station is a local police station serving the Shivanna Gudem, Marriguda, Marriguda mandal, Nalgonda, Telangana area of Marriguda in Nalgonda district, Telangana. It falls within PIN code 509312. Like every police station in India it operates twenty-four hours a day, every day of the year, including public holidays.

Marriguda Police Station is commanded by a Station House Officer, normally an Inspector in an urban posting such as Marriguda and a Sub-Inspector in smaller towns. Both ranks can register an FIR, so you do not need to wait for a particular officer to be on duty before a cognizable offence is recorded.

The caseload at Marriguda Police Station reflects its surroundings in Nalgonda — a steady mix of theft and property complaints, road-traffic matters, lost-document reports and routine address verification.

A direct landline for Marriguda Police Station is not currently listed in our index. For any emergency, dial 100 or 112, which connects you to the Telangana police control room and can dispatch a unit to your location. For non-urgent matters, visiting the station in person is the most reliable route, or contact the Nalgonda district police office.

Every service described below is provided free of charge. No officer at Marriguda Police Station or anywhere else is entitled to charge you a fee for registering a complaint, recording a lost-property report, issuing your copy of an FIR or NC, or carrying out address verification.

What you can do here

Services Available at Marriguda Police Station

A police station handles a far wider range of everyday civic work than most people expect. These are the services Marriguda Police Station provides to residents of Marriguda and the surrounding Nalgonda area.

Registering an FIR

For any cognizable offence — theft, burglary, assault, fraud, criminal intimidation — Marriguda Police Station must register a First Information Report under Section 173 BNSS. You are entitled to a free copy before you leave.

Filing an NC

Non-cognizable matters and lost property are recorded as an NC entry. This is what residents of Marriguda most often need when a phone, wallet, passport or set of vehicle documents goes missing.

Women's helpdesk

Marriguda Police Station is required to run a women's helpdesk, and a statement about a sexual offence must be recorded by a woman officer — at a place of the survivor's choosing, including her own home.

Passport & address verification

Passport applications from PIN 509312 are routed here for verification. The beat constable will visit your address, so keep photo ID, a utility bill and any rental agreement ready.

Tenant & staff verification

Landlords in Marriguda can submit tenant verification here, as can households engaging drivers, domestic workers or security staff. The service is free.

Cybercrime complaints

Online fraud can be reported at Marriguda Police Station regardless of where the offender is located. Call 1930 first — the freeze window on transferred funds is measured in minutes, not days.

Lost & found reports

Lost documents and belongings are logged and a report issued. Banks, insurers, the RTO and the passport office all require this copy before issuing any duplicate.

Traffic & accident reports

Road accidents within the Nalgonda jurisdiction are recorded here. For an accident in progress call 112 first — the control room dispatches both police and ambulance.

Senior citizen assistance

Most state forces maintain a senior-citizen register and conduct welfare visits. Elderly residents living alone near Marriguda can ask to be added at the front desk.

Before you go

Visiting Marriguda Police Station: What to Expect

Getting there. The station is located at Shivanna Gudem, Marriguda, Marriguda mandal, Nalgonda, Telangana. Use the map above for turn-by-turn directions — the Directions button opens your default maps application with the station already set as the destination.

When to go. Round-the-clock opening does not mean round-the-clock availability of attention. The busiest window at Marriguda Police Station runs from mid-morning to early afternoon. If your matter is not urgent, arriving early in the morning or in the late afternoon usually means a shorter wait and an officer with more time to hear you properly.

Who you will meet. Your first contact is the duty officer at the front desk. Explain your matter briefly and they will direct you — to the writer for a report, to the women's helpdesk, or to the SHO for something more serious. If you are unsure whom you need, always start at the front desk rather than wandering the building.

How long it takes. A straightforward lost-property NC generally takes fifteen to thirty minutes. An FIR takes longer, because the officer must record your statement in full and read it back to you. Verification paperwork is usually submitted in a few minutes, with the actual field visit following days later.

Language. You are entitled to have your statement recorded in a language you understand, and to have it read back to you before you sign. Never sign a statement you have not understood, and never sign a blank sheet.

What to carry with you

  • A government photo ID — Aadhaar, driving licence, voter card or passport
  • Any documents relating to your matter: bills, receipts, agreements, prescriptions
  • Photographs or screenshots, with the originals kept on your device
  • Names and phone numbers of any witnesses
  • A written summary of what happened, with dates and times, so nothing is forgotten
  • A pen — and a second copy of anything you are handing over

Do not travel here in an emergency

If a crime is in progress, someone is injured, or you are in immediate danger, calling is always faster than travelling. The control room can dispatch whichever unit is closest to you, which may not be Marriguda Police Station.

Most-asked question

What Is an NC at Marriguda Police Station?

NC stands for Non-Cognizable, and it is the most misunderstood term people meet at a police station. An NC is a formal register entry recording that you reported something — for an offence where police cannot investigate or arrest without a magistrate's permission.

The distinction turns on the seriousness of the offence, not on how upset you are. Minor assault without injury, public nuisance, defamation, simple trespass and most neighbour disputes are non-cognizable. Because the power to arrest is a serious intrusion, the law reserves it for graver crimes.

In practice most NCs filed in Marriguda are not disputes at all — they are lost property. The copy you receive is what your insurer, bank, the RTO or the passport office will demand before issuing a duplicate. Our lost and found guide covers what to do for each document type.

If a station says your matter is “only an NC” but you believe a cognizable offence occurred, say so politely and ask for the refusal in writing. You can then escalate to the Superintendent of Police, or apply to a magistrate under Section 175(3) BNSS.

Commonly filed as an NC in Marriguda

  • A pre-emptive record before a dispute escalates
  • A minor boundary or parking dispute with a neighbour
  • A lost cheque book or bank passbook
  • Address or character verification for an employer
  • Missing vehicle registration or insurance papers
The three routes a complaint can take. Which applies depends on the offence, not on which station you walk into.

What Is an FIR and How Do I Register One at Marriguda Police Station?

The decision the duty officer makes when you report something — and the escalation path if a cognizable offence is refused.

Everything the police can lawfully do about a serious crime begins with one document: the First Information Report. It is recorded under Section 173 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023, which replaced Section 154 of the old Code of Criminal Procedure. Until an FIR exists the police have no legal basis to investigate, arrest, or seize evidence.

Only a cognizable offence gets an FIR. "Cognizable" means grave enough that an officer may arrest without first obtaining a warrant. Theft, burglary, assault causing hurt, kidnapping, rioting and murder all qualify. For anything less serious a station such as Marriguda Police Station records a Non-Cognizable entry instead.

You need no lawyer, no stamp paper, no written application and no fee. Walk in, tell the duty officer what happened, and they must write it down, read it back to you in a language you understand, and take your signature or thumb impression.

The one thing never to skip is your free copy. Section 173(2) BNSS entitles every informant to a copy at no cost — anyone asking you to pay is acting unlawfully. Note the FIR number, the date and the recording officer's name; you will need all three for insurance, for court, and for every follow-up. If a station refuses outright, our complaint guide sets out the escalation route to the SP and then to a magistrate.

After filing

Keep the copy safe, note the Investigating Officer's name and number, and ask when to check back on progress.

What to carry

Government photo ID, documents or bills relating to the incident, photographs, screenshots, and contact details for any witnesses.

If the accused is unknown

An FIR does not require you to name anyone. 'Unknown persons' is perfectly normal and does not weaken your complaint.

Getting updates

Under the 2023 codes you are entitled to a progress update within ninety days. Most state portals also allow status lookup by FIR number.

Protection provisions

How Are Complaints by Women and Children Handled in Marriguda?

Women and children are owed safeguards under Indian law considerably stronger than routine procedure, and every station — Marriguda Police Station included — must honour them. Knowing they exist is often the difference between a complaint being taken seriously and being talked out of the door.

For women

  • A woman cannot be arrested between sunset and sunrise without a magistrate's written permission.
  • Workplace harassment is covered by the POSH Act, 2013, which requires an Internal Committee at every employer.
  • Every station must run a Women's Helpdesk, staffed by a woman officer wherever posting strength allows.
  • A survivor with a disability may have an interpreter or special educator present, and the statement must be video recorded.
  • Medical examination is free at any government or private hospital under Section 397 BNSS.
Full women's safety guide

For children

  • Offences against children are handled under POCSO, 2012, which mandates child-friendly procedure throughout.
  • A missing child must be registered as an FIR immediately, on the presumption of kidnapping or trafficking.
  • Reporting a known or suspected sexual offence against a child is legally compulsory — silence is itself punishable.
  • Details of a child victim may not be published in any form, including on social media.
  • A child's statement should be recorded at home or another place where the child feels safe.
Child safety and CHILDLINE

Helplines: 1091 women's helpline, 181 domestic abuse, 1098 CHILDLINE, 112 any emergency. All free, all twenty-four hours, all working from a phone with no balance. See every emergency number explained.

Digital crime

What Should I Do in the First Hour After Being Scammed?

Why the first sixty minutes matter more than anything you do afterwards.

Cyber fraud is the fastest-growing category of crime reported in Marriguda, and the one where speed matters most. Money leaving your account passes through mule accounts within minutes. Once withdrawn as cash or converted to crypto, recovery is close to impossible.

That is why 1930 exists. Run under the Indian Cyber Crime Coordination Centre, it plugs into the system that can send a freeze instruction to the receiving bank in near real time. That window is the golden hour.

Call 1930 first — before your bank, before posting about it, before going to a station. Have the transaction ID, amount, time and your account number ready. Follow with a written complaint at cybercrime.gov.in, which returns a trackable acknowledgement number.

You may also report at any station including Marriguda Police Station. None may refuse for want of a cyber cell or because the offender is in another state — the loss occurred where you are. Our cybercrime reporting guide walks through the evidence to preserve.

Fake customer care

Search-engine results leading to spoofed helpline numbers that talk you into screen-sharing.

Job and task scams

Small payments for 'tasks' that build trust before a large deposit is demanded and vanishes.

Investment fraud

Trading and crypto groups promising guaranteed returns, usually run through messaging apps.

SIM swap

Your number is ported without consent so OTPs reach the attacker. Sudden loss of signal is the warning sign.

Everyday paperwork

Do I Need to Visit a Station for Passport Verification?

The same five-step chain covers passport, tenant, employment and character verification — only the initiating authority changes.

Crime is not what brings most people to a station in Marriguda. Verification is. Knowing how it runs in Marriguda will save you weeks. Our guide to contacting the police covers what to prepare for each type.

Passport verification

Triggered when you apply at a Passport Seva Kendra. The beat officer visits your address — keep Aadhaar, a utility bill and any rental agreement ready.

Tenant verification

A landlord's legal obligation in most states. Requires the tenant's photo ID, previous address and employer details, and protects the landlord from later liability.

NOC for a new business

Certain trades — bars, cyber cafés, hotels, pawnbrokers — need a police no-objection certificate before licensing.

Police Clearance Certificate

States you have no adverse record — required by most immigration authorities. Apply via Passport Seva, not the station directly.

Verification is a free government service. No officer may charge for visiting your address or issuing a report. If asked for money, report it to the state Anti-Corruption Bureau or Vigilance Commission — see our sources and methodology.

Inside the station

What Are the Different Rooms in a Police Station For?

A typical station layout. Smaller rural stations combine several functions into one room, but every one of them exists somewhere.

Stations divide into functions, not one open counter. Heading to the right one saves a long wait in the wrong queue.

The front desk is staffed continuously, including at night and on holidays. The duty officer there is your first contact for everything. If unsure whom to see, start here.

The writer or record room keeps the registers: FIR, NC, the general diary logging every event of the day, and the roznamcha recording officers' movements. Your free copy is produced here.

The malkhana is the secured store for seized and recovered property — where anything of yours sits until a court orders its release on superdari. The lock-up holds people in custody, never beyond twenty-four hours without a magistrate, never women overnight without a woman constable, and never a juvenile.

Most stations are busiest between ten and one. If your matter is not urgent, arriving early or late afternoon means a shorter wait — or skip the trip and check which station is actually closest to you first.

Other common matters

What Else Do Police Handle in Marriguda?

Lost and found

Lost documents and belongings are recorded as an NC, and that copy is what banks, insurers, the RTO and passport authorities require before issuing duplicates.

Many urban forces now accept lost-article reports online and email a downloadable certificate — worth checking before travelling to a station.

Lost and found guide

Missing persons

If the person is under eighteen, police must register an FIR at once on the presumption of kidnapping and upload details to TrackChild.

There is no waiting period. The twenty-four hour rule is a myth with no basis in law, and the Supreme Court has directed that reports be registered immediately.

Emergency help guide

Traffic matters

Challans are largely electronic now. Check and contest them through your state transport portal or Parivahan. A disputed challan goes before a traffic magistrate, not the issuing officer.

Road accidents are cognizable. Call 112 immediately and do not move vehicles unless someone needs hospital — Good Samaritan guidelines protect rescuers, and no hospital may refuse emergency treatment or demand payment first.

Traffic police guide
Know before you go

What Are My Rights at Marriguda Police Station?

If any of these is denied, note the officer's name and buckle number and complain to the SP, the State Human Rights Commission, or your state's Police Complaints Authority.

Your rights do not stop at the station door — that is where they matter most. Articles 20 and 21, reinforced by the Supreme Court in D.K. Basu v. State of West Bengal (1997), protect every person in India — complainant, witness or arrested person alike, and whether you are at Marriguda Police Station or anywhere else.

On arrest the officer must state the grounds, wear visible identification of name and rank, and prepare an arrest memo attested by a family member or a respectable local person, recording the time and place. You may have one friend or relative informed.

You must be produced before a magistrate within twenty-four hours excluding travel. Custody beyond that needs judicial authorisation. You may meet a lawyer of your choice during interrogation, and receive a medical examination every forty-eight hours.

Women cannot be arrested before sunrise or after sunset without a magistrate's prior written permission, and any arrest or search of a woman must be by a woman officer — see our women's safety guide. Anyone under eighteen goes before the Juvenile Justice Board, never an ordinary lock-up.

As a complainant, Section 179 BNSS matters too: a woman, anyone under fifteen or over sixty, and anyone with a disability or acute illness cannot be compelled to attend a station outside their district. In those cases the police must come to you.

Avoid these

What Should I Avoid Doing at a Police Station?

Calling the bank before calling 1930

For online fraud the freeze instruction comes through the 1930 system. Minutes on hold with your bank are minutes the money keeps moving.

Going to the wrong station and giving up

Zero FIR means any station must record your complaint. Jurisdiction is sorted afterwards, by the police.

Deleting the evidence

Screenshots, chat logs, call records and emails are evidence. Embarrassment is not a reason to destroy your own case.

Waiting to 'gather more proof'

You do not need a complete case to report. Police have investigative powers you do not — delay only loses evidence.

Paying for a free service

FIRs, NCs, copies and verification are all free. Any demand for money is itself reportable to the Anti-Corruption Bureau.

Believing the 24-hour myth

There is no waiting period before reporting a missing person. Any station saying otherwise is wrong, and for a child it is seriously wrong.

None of this is legal advice. For a matter already in court, or a serious allegation against you, speak to a qualified advocate. Free legal aid is available to every woman, every child and anyone below the income threshold through the District Legal Services Authority — start with our help guides.
