Director General of Police Ashutosh Shukla (IPS:1986:TN), who
was posted as the Special Officer, Refugees Camp at the Mandapam (Ramanathapuram),
was on Thursday abruptly transferred as CVO of MTC in Chennai. Shukla has previously been Police Commissioner, Chennai and
also as the Additional DGP in charge of the Prisons. During Lok Sabha polls
2019, the Election Commission had appointed Shukla as the DGP (Elections).
However, immediately after elections, Shukla was shunted out as the Special
Officer at the Refugee Camp in Mandapam – widely considered to be a punishment
post. Meanwhile, DGP J K Tripathy has ordered the transfer of about
50 police officers in the rank of Deputy Superintendent of Police across the
State.
