Officer Profiles and Current Appointments

Mr. Altaf Khan, a 2010-batch IPS officer from Jammu and Kashmir, currently holds the post of Deputy Inspector General (DIG) of the Southern Range in Mizoram. His extensive field experience has brought a strategic edge to law enforcement operations in the region.

Mr. Dwarka Gaadhi, from the 2022 batch and also from Jammu and Kashmir, is posted as Sub-Divisional Police Officer (SDPO), Aizawl ‘S’. He is playing a vital role in urban policing and public order management in the capital region.

Mr. Arun Balgotra, a 2023-batch IPS officer from Jammu and Kashmir, serves as Assistant Commandant with the 3rd Battalion of the Mizoram Armed Police. His appointment reinforces the state’s focus on strengthening paramilitary leadership.

Mr. Shivam Siddharth, who has earlier served in Jammu and Kashmir, is now posted as Superintendent of Police (SP) in Hnahthial district. His familiarity with diverse terrains and communities positions him well for leading policing efforts in the region.

Promoting Administrative Exchange and National Unity

These appointments are part of a broader national framework that promotes inter-state postings of All India Services officers. This approach not only builds cross-regional experience but also enhances coordination between states and strengthens governance mechanisms across the country.
