An audio clip of the Superintendent of Police Amit Singh rebuking a police inspector has gone viral on social media.

The clip shows the SP rebuking inspector Ravi who was transferred to Mysuru South Police station from V V Puram Traffic Police Station. 

It is learnt that the SP had not allowed Ravi to take charge of the new police station (till further orders), as there was an oral direction from the office of DG & IGP, in this regard. Ravi brought the issue to the notice of a minister. 

It is also learnt that Ravi’s appointment was not brought to the notice of former chief minister Siddaramaiah. The jurisdiction of the police station includes parts of Varuna Assembly constituency, represented by Dr Yathindra, Siddaramaiah’s son.
