Udupi, Jun 7: Anupama Shenoy, the Deputy Superintendent of Police of Kudligi sub-division in Ballari district, whose sudden resignation attracted the attention of media and opposition parties, may change her decision if the state government transferred her to Mangaluru, according to her family.

anuAnupama is the eldest among the three children of Radhakrishna Shenoy and Nalini Shenoy, who hail from Ucchila near Bada village of Udupi district. The Shenoys have been running a small tea canteen at Ucchila for the last 40 years.

“If my daughter is transferred to Mangaluru, she may withdraw her resignation,” said Radhakrishna, who accuses both her seniors in the police department and the elected representatives of not supporting her.

Recalling how he took great pains to educate his daughter, Radhakrishna said: “Had I known that she would be tortured so much, I wouldn't have had to provide for her higher education.”

“I ran a canteen to fund her education... She is staying away from the family for the time being,” he said.

It could be recalled here that when a group of people staged protest against her last Saturday, the DySP rushed into her chamber, wrote out her resignation letter and handed it over to an inspector.

As per protocol, Anupama should have submitted her resignation to Inspector General of Police (IGP), Ballari Range through the Superintendent of Police, Ballari, but instead, handed it over to her junior officer, circle police inspector Nagappa Bankali.

BJP, JD(S) seize opportunity

Meanwhile, the Bharatiya Janata Party and Janata Dal (Secular) have utilised the fresh development to target Chief Minister Siddramaiah-led Congress government in Karnataka.

Union Minister Ananth Kumar charged the CM with behaving irresponsibly in connection with the resignation of a s woman police officer.

“Does a higher police official have no relationship with the state government? What was the intelligence bureau doing if the chief minister had no information about the developments which led to Anupama's resignation? Siddaramaiah and Home Minister G?Parameshwara are showing a dictatorial and adamant attitude to hide their failures,” Ananthkumar told reporters here on Monday.

The police system is under pressure due to the cold war between Siddaramaiah and Parameshwara, he added.

Leader of Opposition in the Legislative Assembly Jagadish?Shettar said the Congress government was discouraging honest officials and was protecting the corrupt.

“We have information that harassment of Anupama Shenoy continued even after she was re-posted to Kudligi, after the incident of putting Minister P?T?Parameshwar Naik's call on hold, and public outcry over her transfer to Indi. Her resignation is an indication of what other officers are facing. The chief minister, home minister or DGP should talk to her on the real reason for her resignation. Otherwise, other officials will also be demoralised,” Shettar said.

JD(S) leader H D Kumaraswamy said Anupama shouldn't have resigned and sought transfer instead. He praised her for taking on the labour minister and cracking down on illegalities in Ballari. “Her resignation clearly shows there is no protection for officials under this government,” he said.
