Make Sanjay Verma's appointment as DGP permanent: Congress

Party writes to ECI stating Rashmi Shukla should be considered retired now that she has hit the age of 60

- 

The Congress on Wednesday said the appointment of IPS officer Sanjay Kumar Verma as the state director general of police should be made permanent, and that Rashmi Shukla, whom he replaced, should be considered retired now that she has reached the age of 60.

The party took objection to the temporary appointment of Verma, a 1990 batch officer, as DGP, and wrote to the Election Commission of India (ECI) asking it to intervene.
