Madhya Pradesh government transfers 12 IPS officers

The Madhya Pradesh Home Department has issued orders for the transfer of 12 IPS officers, resulting in new Superintendents of Police (SP) for five districts: Narmadapuram, Betul, Panna, Harda, and Alirajpur.

In Narmadapuram, Deepak Kumar Shukla replaces Saikrishna S. Thota, who has been moved to the Police Headquarters in Bhopal as Assistant Inspector General (AIG). In Betul, Amit Saxena takes over from Virendra Jain, who has been appointed as Deputy Commissioner of Police in Bhopal. Panna's new SP is Savyasachi Saraf, replacing Nivedita Naidu, who will now serve as Commandant of the 10th Battalion of the Special Armed Force in Sagar.

Additionally, Ankit Jaiswal has been appointed as the SP of Harda, replacing Shashank, while Samar Verma replaces Raghuvansh Kumar Singh as the SP of Alirajpur. The reshuffle follows administrative changes in districts previously affected by farmer protests, including the removal of collectors in Narmadapuram and Panna.
