He had sought voluntary retirement from service nearly six months ago in September last year and demitted office now. He has previously been posted as Bengaluru city police commissioner during 2019-20.

If sources to be believed then he is likely to contest the upcoming Assembly elections in Karnataka from a constituency in Bengaluru South region.

On his final day of duty, Rao tweeted, “Last trip home after curtains down of 32 years in IPS. I have extreme gratitude to my family, the people of Karnataka and all my colleagues,friends,elders & young people in my life and finally the Governments of Karnataka across parties… heading into choppy seas.”

Sources close to Rao said he was unhappy with the way he was treated by the present state government and has been showing interest in joining the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) which is likely to field candidates during the Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) elections as well as during the Assembly polls.
