As the retirement of Jammu and Kashmir’s current Director General of Police (DGP) RR Swain, an IPS officer 1991 batch, looms at the end of September 2024, attention is turning to the selection of his successor in the sensitive region.

Amidst deliberations in the power corridors, three prominent names have emerged as frontrunners: Pankaj Saxena (IPS:1992), Deepak Kumar (IPS:1993), and Vijay Kumar (IPS:1997).

The central government, tasked with this critical decision, is expected to prioritize an officer with extensive experience and deep familiarity with the complexities of Jammu and Kashmir. Such a choice will be crucial in effectively implementing governmental policies and maintaining security in the region.

As discussions continue, there is anticipation that new contenders might enter the fray, and the central government’s final decision could bring unexpected twists, as has been seen in previous appointments.

The appointment of the next DGP is eagerly awaited, given its implications for law enforcement and governance in one of India’s most strategically significant territories.
