Bangalore, Aug 28: In a major reshuffle, the state government has promoted and transferred 31 Karnataka State Police Service officers.

Lokayukta Superintendent of Police Abdul Ahad Puthige has been promoted and posted as CID Superintendent of Police.

Abdul Ahad, who started his police career as a Sub Inspector, was elevated to the post of DySP in 2005. He served in Chikmagalur, Soraba and Doddaballapur as DySP before becoming the ASP in Bangalore. He also served in the Police Academy in Mysore in the rank of a subdivisional police officer.

As DySP, his efforts in bringing Naxalites to the mainstream were widely appreciated. In recognition of his distinguished and honest service, he was conferred with the Chief Minister's Medal in April 2010.

Born on May 10, 1977 as the fifth son of Moulana E M Shaffi and Rukhya couple from Palakkala, Puthige near Moodbidri, in Dakshina Kannada district, he studied up to 7th in a local school in Puthige. After completing his high school and PU studies in Jain Junior College, Moodbidri, he had his graduation from St Joseph's College, Bangalore.

He passed the Karnataka Administrative Service prelims in 1999 and in 2000 he passed the police sub inspector selection, standing 4th in the state.

In 2002, he cleared the KAS mains and in 2004 passed the final interview, thereby qualifying for the deputy superintendent of police post.

In 2005, Abdul Ahad passed the Indian Adminstrative Service (IAS) examination, standing 310th in the entire country, which is quite an achievement.

Being a soft-spoken, Abdul Ahad could make one wonder how, without a tough exterior look, he could be a successful police officer.

Abdul Ahad is also a Hafiz-e-Quran (one who memorises the whole Qur'an).

Bengaluru, June 22: BJP leader and Madikeri MLA Appachu Ranjan has urged the Karnataka Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa and Home Minister Basavaraj Bommai to drop cases against the saffron activists who had involved in attacks against cattle traders and transporters across the state.

In a letter addressed to the CM and the Home Minister, the MLA expressed his concern against the illegal transportation and slaughtering of cattle. Cow is considered to be holy in Hinduism. Butchering of cattle has been hurting the religious sentiments of people, he stated.

Ranjan stated that cases had been registered against 'Gau Rakshaks' or cow vigilantes who had fought against the illegal transportation of cattle.

“Filing cases against the protectors of cattle is condemnable. If the cases are not dropped, then there will be none to question the illegal cattle transporters,” he said adding that cases registered against various police stations against cow vigilantes must be dropped.
