Lucknow: The Uttar Pradesh government has once again demonstrated its commitment to ensuring law and order, prioritizing the safety of the public across the state. On Sunday, the state government issued transfer orders for 15 Indian Police Service (IPS) officers, marking a strategic reshuffle that includes new postings in several key districts. This decision aims to streamline administrative reforms, bolster law enforcement, and enhance public security. The officers chosen for these new roles are renowned for their disciplined approach and expertise in crime control, and the government has tailored their appointments based on the specific needs of each district.
Among the major changes, Dr. Ajay Pal Sharma has been appointed as the in-charge Additional Police Commissioner for Prayagraj, while Dr. Kaustubh will serve as the Superintendent of Police (SP) in Jaunpur. Other notable appointments include Keshav Kumar as SP for Ambedkar Nagar, Aparna Rajat Kaushik as SP for Amethi, Ankita Sharma as SP for Kasganj, Vikrant Veer as SP for Deoria, and Dr. Omveer Singh as SP for Bahraich. In addition, Chiranjeev Nath Sinha will take charge as SP for Hathras, Prachi Singh as Commandant of the 32nd Battalion of PAC in Lucknow, Dr. Abhishek Mahajan as SP for Siddharthnagar, Sankalp Sharma as Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP) for Lucknow Commissionerate, Vrinda Shukla as SP for UP 1090, and Nipun Agarwal as DCP for Lucknow Police Commissionerate.
This reshuffle reflects the state government’s ‘Zero Tolerance’ policy towards lawlessness, underscoring the administration’s firm stance on crime and corruption. Under the leadership of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, the Uttar Pradesh government has made it clear that no leniency will be tolerated when it comes to maintaining law and order. The government’s actions signal its unwavering commitment to taking stringent measures against criminals, ensuring that the rule of law prevails.
The appointments of these officers to their new roles demonstrate the state administration’s dedication to efficiency and transparency in governance. IPS officer Aparna Rajat Kaushik, from the 2015 batch, known for her disciplined and result-oriented approach, has been appointed as the new SP of Amethi. During her previous tenure, she played a crucial role in transforming Kasganj into a crime-free district. Her appointment is expected to further strengthen law and order in Amethi, offering renewed hope for better security.
This administrative decision not only signifies the government’s intention to enforce stricter policing but also seeks to rebuild public trust in the system. The reshuffling reinforces the notion that the steps taken towards the state’s development and the safety of its citizens will yield positive results.
The move underscores that no form of complacency in law enforcement will be tolerated. The government’s strategy ensures that those entrusted with responsibilities will not only act with transparency but will also set an example for administrative reforms throughout the state. These officers will have the opportunity to solidify their leadership skills and reputation by carrying out their duties effectively in challenging circumstances.
This reshuffle sends a strong message to both the public and criminals. It assures citizens of enhanced security and accountability from law enforcement agencies, while signaling to wrongdoers that the state’s police force is equipped to take stern action. The move is a pivotal step towards reinforcing law and order, promoting administrative transparency, and further improving policing standards in Uttar Pradesh.
