Transferred DySP Anupama Shenoy reinstated after outcry

February 1, 2016

Bengaluru, Feb 1: Facing public pressure and criticism from various quarters, Karnataka government today reinstated a senior woman police official after she was transferred allegedly at the behest of a state minister for putting his call on hold. DySP

A video footage showing state Labour Minister P T Parameshwara Naik making a boastful claim for the shunting out of Deputy Superintendent of Police of Kudligi sub-division in Ballari district, Anupama Shenoy had gone viral and triggered a storm.

The claim by Naik, the district minister in charge, to party workers in Hadagali assembly constituency, had come as an embarrassment to the Congress-led state government as the video surfaced, just a few days after the minister rejected any role in the transfer as "far from the truth."

The order signed by Director General and Inspector General of Karnataka Police states that the (previous) order posting Shenoy to Indi Sub Division, Vijayapura district, on Official Duty (OOD) has been "withdrawn" with immediate effect.

It stated that Shenoy will continue to discharge her duties in Kudligi sub-division in Ballari district, the same position she held prior to her transfer, and asks the official concerned to submit a report about her reporting to the duty.

Earlier today, a group of women activists, rallying behind Shenoy, sought the intervention of President Pranab Mukherjee, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, National Women Commission Chairperson Lalitha Kumaramangalam, Congress President Sonia Gandhi and party Vice-President Rahul Gandhi in the issue.

Chief Minister Siddaramaiah had defended the abrupt transfer calling it an "administrative matter".

Home Minister and state Congress Chief G Parameshwara had also said the DySP has not been transferred and she has been sent on OOD(On Official Duty), calling it natural in an administrative set up.

Shenoy had reportedly received a call from a number which said the minister would speak to her.

At the same time, she also received a call from the Superintendent of Police, Ballari and she allegedly put the minister's call on hold and spoke to the SP. Angered by this, Nailk reportedly took her to task and also complained to her higher-ups.

The minister as well as the government drew flak from opposition and public for action against the officer. There were also reports that Congress high command had sought a report from party state unit.

Muslim organisations felicitate State BJP Chief Nalin Kumar

I want to know from them wat was the need for this. Has this helped the ordinary Mangalore Muslims in anyway. I would not have asked abt this if the program was conducted in your house. But here it is done in the name of Muslims. We need to stop being intellectually dishonest

Young energetic Muslim brothers present in Dk ,please note we need young leaders to lead us . Wake up ... and take over .

We respect ur decision sir.

But there are a lot of questions about it on people's mind.

We need to be updated about ur next plan of action.

Are u planning to approach the court for gaining the permission from the police, bcoz otherwise I don't think we will get the permission

Secondly, a few days back I wanted to contact Muslim central committee office to confirm if the protest Wil be there. I googled for the no, but the no. did not exist. Does that mean the Muslim central committee does not have an office or telephone no????

This only shows how organised we are.

Requesting Muslim central committee to get their house in order. Get more professional. Also consult people to utilise various platform to responsibly collect funds from so many ordinary bearys who want to donate money, but don't know whom to send it to.

We need an action committee to handle such situations. It must consist a battery of lawyers to fight the cases filed by the police.

If our leaders are old, they need to groom new leaders into the committee.

Moreover, it is important to question these so called leaders about their fecilitation program conducted for making kateel wen he won the election. Wat was the purpose of such fecilitation. Becoz I don't think he gives a damn when our community suffered. I question, whether all this is done in our name only to gain your contact and flourish ur business???

Never ever dare to do so in the name of Muslims
