The Union Public Service Commission has reportedly shortlisted three names for the Odisha Director-General of Police (DGP) post and forwarded the list to the state government for appointment to the top post.

The selected names include ;

  1. Pradeep Kapur (IPS:1986:OR)
  2. Sunil Kumar Bansal (IPS:1987:OR)
  3. Manoj Chhabra (IPS:1988:OR)

Now, it is for the Odisha government to choose its candidates from out of these names. As the incumbent DGP Abhay (IPS:1986:OR) is set to retire on December 31, the government is expected to announce name of his successor anytime now.

Presently, Pradeep Kapur is serving as Advisor (Scientific) of the National Technical Research Organisation (NTRO) in Delhi. He is due to retire in November 2022.

Bansal is Special Director of Subsidiary Intelligence Bureau (SIB) in Mumbai. He is set to retire in June 2022. He has been away from Odisha for almost 16 years on central deputation.

Chhabra is currently serving as Special DGP, Special Armed Police (SAP). His service period will end in October 2023.

Last month, the state government issued a notification, allowing Abhay to retire from service on December 31. He assumed charge on December 9, 2019. His retirement was extended by six months to meet a Supreme Court directive of a minimum period of two years of service for a DGP.
