According to the transfer order, Tarn Taran SSP, IPS officer Gurmeet Singh Chauhan, would also report to the DGP.

In place of Mr. Chauhan, Ashwani Kapoor has been appointed as Tarn Taran SSP.

Mukhwinder Singh Chhina, a senior IPS officer, has been appointed as additional director general of police (Patiala range), while GS Sandhu has been appointed as inspector general of police (Faridkot range). Mr. Sandhu takes over from IPS officer Ajay Maluja.
