Srinagar : The Jammu and Kashmir government Wednesday appointed K. Rajendra Kumar as the acting director general of police with the current police chief Kuldeep Khoda retiring the next day.
The cabinet, during a meeting in Tangdhar town in Kupwara near the Line of Control, issued the order.

Next month, Ashok Prasad, an Indian Police Service officer from the Andhra Pradesh cadre, will take over from Kumar as the new police chief.
“The central government has not yet relieved Prasad from the Intelligence Bureau where he is additional director,” official sources told IANS.
