The state government on Wednesday, October 30, reshuffled more than 260 police personnel, 150 of which were from Mumbai, ahead of the November 20 assembly election 2024, an official said.
According to PTI, the official attributed the transfers to a directive of the Election Commission about the relocation who had served in their home districts or current posting for over three years.
About 150 Mumbai Police officers, including senior inspectors, have been moved to various districts, including Gadchiroli, Gondia, Bhandara, Nagpur and Washim.
