CommissionerSubodh Kumar Jaiswal may be chief of the Mumbai police, but he's not necessarily the boss of them, as Assistant Commissioner of Police (ACP) Rajendrakumar Trivedi has demonstrated. After Jaiswal transferred Trivedi, the Maharashtra Administrative Tribunal set aside the order saying the CP doesn't have power to change postings of ACP rank and above.

On January 1, 2017, Rajendrakumar Trivedi was posted as the ACP at Sion. However, in August, he was shocked to learn about his transfer to the Local Arms Unit (LA), before he could complete his tenure of two years. Irked with the abrupt transfer order, the 57-year-old policeman decided to take the police department head on by moving the Maharashtra Administrative Tribunal (MAT).
