Chandigarh: Two days after enforcement of the model code of conduct, the Election Commission on Friday (Jan. 06) directed the Punjab administration to transfer Senior Superintendents of Police (SSPs) of 10 districts.

G Nageshwara Rao and Amit Prasad have been appointed as the Amritsar Commissioner of Police and Bathinda IGP (Counter-intelligence), respectively.

The EC has also decided to post new IGPs of Bathinda and Patiala Zone. It has proposed the names of Nilabh Kishore and B Chandrasekhar, respectively, for these posts. However, the orders would be finalised only after the EC receives inputs from the state by tomorrow since the two were outside the panel.

“DH Nimbale goes as SSP of Muktsar, Harjeet Singh to Tarn Taran, Gaurav Garg Ferozepur, S Bhoopathi to Patiala, J Elanchezihian as Amritsar (Rural) SSP and Deepak Hilori to Batala. PK Baliram goes to Fazilka, Nanak Singh Faridkot, Alka Meena Kapurthala and VS Soni to Mansa”, notes The Tribune (TT).
