The Election Commission of India (ECI) on Tuesday has revoked the suspension of Telangana director general of police (DGP) Anjani Kumar. Kumar was suspended on 3 December after he had called on state Congress chief (now chief minister) A Revanth Reddy with a bouquet when the counting process was still on.
That time EC had said Anjani Kumar had violated the model code as well as service conduct rules and had set a bad precedent for junior officers.
The sources further said that the state government had requested the EC to revoke Kumar’s suspension as he had tendered an unconditional apology and accepted his mistake. They said the Telangana government will issue a warning to the top cop and he would not be assigned any election-related duty in the future.
