The Fire and Emergency Services in Jammu and Kashmir (J&K) began in 1893 as the Srinagar Fire Brigade. Back then, some towns had their own small fire brigades. Early firefighting tools included axes for cutting through burning buildings and buckets for throwing water. Later, steam engines replaced these methods. These steam engines, which were powered by burning firewood to heat water, were transported on carts pulled by firemen.
Initially, the department had just 5 fire stations and 60 firemen, making it the third oldest fire brigade in India after Mumbai (1803) and Kolkata (1822). Today, it is the fourth largest fire service in the country, expanding from 5 to 180 fire stations across the Union Territory.
The motto of the Fire and Emergency Services is “We serve to Save.” The department’s officers and firefighters are always ready to respond to emergencies. They risk their lives to protect others and have made significant sacrifices in their line of duty. The department is deeply grateful for their bravery.
The department has acquired advanced firefighting and disaster management equipment and is constantly working to improve its infrastructure. Training is also a top priority to ensure that its personnel are well-prepared for emergencies.
Until 1978, the Fire Services were part of the J&K Police. Since then, they have operated as an independent department within the J&K Government. In 2004, the department’s role expanded to include disaster management and rescue operations for both natural and man-made disasters. It was officially renamed “Fire and Emergency Services, J&K” by Government Order No. Home-196 (Fire) on June 8, 2004.
Key Functions of the Department:
- Protecting life and property.
- Managing disasters.
- Firefighting and reducing damage from fires, including during terrorist attacks, cross-firing, and bomb/mine blasts.
- Rescue operations during floods and heavy rains.
- Dewatering during floods.
- Providing clean drinking water during floods and droughts.
- Evacuating people in rural and urban areas.
- Search and rescue during earthquakes.
- Fire prevention and public awareness through media, seminars, lectures, inspections, fire audits, risk assessments, and mock drills.
- Setting up temporary fire stations during VIP visits, public events, and festivals, including the Holy Amarnath Ji Yatra.
- Maintaining a large fleet of firefighting vehicles, equipment, and portable pumps.
