Srinagar: In a significant administrative move, the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) has ordered the posting of senior IPS officer Abdul Ghani Mir to the Jammu & Kashmir segment of the Joint AGMUT cadre, following his return from central deputation.

Official Order Issued by MHA

According to an official communication cited by Kashmir News Corner (KNC), the order reads:

“Consequent upon joining the cadre on repatriation from Central Deputation, Abdul Ghani Mir, IPS (AGMUT: 1994) is hereby posted to Jammu & Kashmir segment of Joint AGMUT cadre with immediate effect and until further orders.”

The posting has been approved by the Competent Authority, indicating the central government’s intention to place experienced officers in key positions within Jammu & Kashmir’s administrative framework.

Background of the Officer

Abdul Ghani Mir, a 1994-batch IPS officer, belongs to the AGMUT cadre, which includes Arunachal Pradesh, Goa, Mizoram, and Union Territories including Jammu & Kashmir. Over the years, he has held several critical roles in policing and internal security, both at the state and central levels.

While details of his upcoming responsibilities have not been formally announced, his experience and seniority suggest he may be appointed to a top-level law enforcement or intelligence position within the Union Territory.

Strategic Importance of the Posting

The posting comes at a time when the government continues to strengthen the administrative and security apparatus in Jammu & Kashmir. Assigning a senior officer like Mir is seen as a move to bolster governance, especially in areas related to law and order, counter-insurgency, and public safety.

This reassignment underlines the ongoing efforts by the Union Government to ensure experienced leadership in sensitive regions through the flexible use of the AGMUT cadre system.
