ACPs transferred
The government has issued orders to transfer two Assistant Commissioners of Police (ACPs) attached to Govindrajnagar Assembly constituency. The move is in compliance with EC’s direction that Kengeri ACP T D Durgaiah and Vijayanagar Assistant Commissioner of Police N Hanumanthappa be transferred with immediate effect.
The Congress had recently lodged a complaint with the EC stating that the two officers had been in the same jurisdiction for several years.
