Patna: With the Bihar Assembly Elections on the horizon, the State Home Department has initiated a major reshuffle in the police force. On Thursday, six Indian Police Service (IPS) officers and 26 Bihar Police Service officers were transferred and assigned to new postings, many of which carry critical responsibilities in politically and communally sensitive districts.

The transfers are widely seen as part of a larger strategy to tighten the state’s security apparatus and ensure smooth and fair election conduct across the state.

Young IPS Officers Take Charge in Key Areas

The state government has entrusted several young IPS officers, primarily from the 2022 and 2023 batches, with key law enforcement roles across Bihar.

  • Mohammad Mohibullah Ansari, previously SDPO Patna City-1, has been appointed as SDPO Patna (Law & Order-2).
  • Shailaja, a 2022 batch officer, has been transferred from Vaishali ASP to Hilsa SDPO, Nalanda district.
  • Sanket Kumar, also from the 2022 batch, is now the SDPO of Bikramganj (Rohtas), after serving as ASP, Saran.
  • Garima, IPS (2022), is the new SDPO of Saraiya, Muzaffarpur.
  • Sakshi Kumari, Begusarai ASP and 2022 batch officer, has been made SDPO of Ballia, Begusarai.
  • Komal Meena, a 2023 batch officer and ASP in Darbhanga, now takes charge as SDPO Masaurhi, Patna.

These postings place newly inducted officers at the frontline of election preparedness, law and order management, and community policing.

26 Bihar Police Service Officers Also Shifted

In parallel, 26 officers from the Bihar Police Service cadre have been given new postings in crucial areas. Many of these changes impact district-level policing, cybercrime, and traffic enforcement units.

Key appointments include:

  • Sunita Kumari – SDPO Pupri, Sitamarhi
  • Nav Vaibhav – Traffic DSP, Patna
  • Ramakrishna – Cyber Crime DSP, Katihar
  • Gopal Krishna – Cyber Crime DSP, Jehanabad
  • Nawal Kishore – Cyber Crime DSP, Patna
  • Shailesh Pritam – SDPO, Banmankhi
  • Sushil Kumar – SDPO, Araria
  • Rajesh Kumar – Dual charge as SDPO Jhajha and DSP, Muzaffarpur Railway

These transfers aim to beef up cyber policing, manage railway zone security, and streamline traffic control in urban centers.

Appointments in Vigilance and Police Training Units

Recognizing the importance of administrative transparency, the government has also made new appointments in vigilance and training units:

  • Mohd. Wasim Feroz – DSP, Surveillance Investigation Bureau, Patna
  • Narendra Kumar – Surveillance DSP, Patna
  • Sahriyar Akhtar and Sumit Kumar – Assigned to Bihar Police Academy, Rajgir

These assignments are seen as crucial to curbing bureaucratic corruption and ensuring professional training for new officers.

Election Readiness and Law & Order Priority for State Government

The reshuffle underscores the government’s focus on preparing a robust security and administrative framework for the upcoming polls. With concerns over communal tensions, poll-related violence, and logistical challenges, these officer-level changes are intended to ensure a neutral and efficient police presence throughout the election period.
