New Delhi (12.07.2024): Union Home Ministry on Thursday
transferred incumbent Goa Director General of Police (DGP) Jaspal Singh (IPS:
1996: AGMUT) from Goa to Delhi. He is replaced by Alok Kumar (IPS: 1996: AGMUT)
as the new Goa DGP. The development comes after Singh’s name cropped up in
connection with an inquiry ordered by Goa Chief Minister Pramod Sawant after
the demolition of a house in North Goa’s Assagao last month. A purported report
written by a policeman from North Goa’s Anjuna police station submitted to the
chief secretary of Goa claimed that the Goa DGP Jaspal Singh “pressurised” his
subordinates to allow demolition of the house.
