An Assistant Commissioner of Police who was recently transferred has requested a 'Sampark Sabha' with the top police officer and all personnel following a protest at the Police Headquarters.
An Assistant Commissioner of Police (ACP) who was recently transferred to a new posting has formally requested a 'Sampark Sabha'—a meeting with the chief police officer and all police personnel. The request came after a protest call was raised at the Police Headquarters (PHQ), prompting the ACP to seek a forum to discuss the concerns raised.
The ACP’s letter, addressed to the senior police leadership, outlines the need for a collective discussion to address grievances that surfaced during the PHQ protest. The meeting is intended to provide a platform for officers to voice their issues and for the leadership to respond.
While the police department has acknowledged receipt of the ACP’s request, no official statement has yet been released regarding the scheduling or agenda of the proposed Sampark Sabha. The situation remains under observation as the police hierarchy considers the next steps.
The incident highlights the ongoing tensions within the police force and the mechanisms in place for officers to seek dialogue with higher authorities.
