The transfers, which were made on the directions of the government, were executed by the DGP headquarters on Tuesday.

Among those affected by the reshuffle are the Superintendents of Police (SPs) of eight districts, including Sultanpur, Amroha, Lakhimpur Kheri, Mainpuri, Kannauj, Mirzapur, Bhadohi, and Basti.

The government has also canceled the transfer order of 1999 batch IPS officer Dr. Sanjeev Gupta, the Home Secretary, to the DGP Headquarters, along with the transfer of 1996 batch IPS officer N. Ravinder, DGP’s GSO, to ADG ACO.

Furthermore, 2003 batch IPS officer Nachiketa Jha, IG Headquarters, has been shifted to IG Establishment, and 2006 batch IPS officer Shalabh Mathur, IG Establishment, will now oversee IG Personnel.
