Prayagraj’s outgoing Senior Superintendent of Police was removed from
his post and put on the waiting list on Tuesday---the same day he
tested positive for COVID-19.
An officer with an honest and efficient image, 39-year old Satyarth Pankaj Aniruddha was removed from his post late last night. He had recently hit headlines for leading arrests in the 69,000 assistant teacher recruitment fraud of the Uttar Pradesh government.
Earlier, his gunner tested positive.
Aniruddha’s transfer was part of a major reshuffle in which nine IPS officers were transferred late last night. While all of them have been given fresh assignments, Aniruddha is the only officer who has been put on the waiting list.
In a tweet he had thanked the people of Prayagraj to whom he said he would remain ever grateful for trusting and showering him with love.
Reacting to his tweet Congress General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra said she was surprised at the Prayagraj SSP being transferred when he was in the middle of unearthing a major teacher recruitment fraud.
Wishing him well Priyanka in a tweet said that she hoped that he would work with the same honesty and transparency wherever he was posted.
