By NNN-APP,
Jaipur, India : Director General of Police A S Gill has been asked to proceed on long leave, home department sources said today.
The charge has been handed over to K S Bains who is currently holding the post of special DG (Anti-Corruption Bureau).
Sources said the state government was unhappy over Gill’s handling of the Gujjar clashes in which over 42 people have been killed.
“We are not trying to send any signal,” Home Minister Gulab Chand Kataria said when asked about the move.
“This is something between the Chief Minister and the cop. It is his decision to quit. I think it is quite natural for him to take the step after the incidents of deaths,” he told NDTV news channel.
Gill was not available for comments.
