New Delhi, March 25, 2025 – A major shake-up hit Delhi Police on Tuesday as Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena ordered the transfer of 28 Indian Police Service (IPS) and Delhi, Andaman and Nicobar Islands Police Service (DANIPS) officers. The move, reported by @NEWSDAILY123 on X at 4:08 PM IST, has set tongues wagging about its timing and intent, though no official explanation has surfaced.
The reshuffle spans key ranks, hinting at a possible recalibration of law enforcement in the capital. Delhi, fresh off a BJP-led government change in February, has seen heightened political activity, with the budget presentation dominating headlines. Could this be a strategic alignment under CM Rekha Gupta’s administration, or a response to internal friction? Speculation on X ranges from routine admin moves to whispers of pressure from above.
Delhi Police, tasked with securing a city of 20 million, often faces scrutiny—be it for crime rates or public order (Hindustan Times, 2024). This mass transfer, one of the largest in recent memory, raises practical questions: Will it disrupt ongoing probes or signal a tougher stance on law and order? For now, the silence from authorities leaves room for guesswork, but the impact on policing—and public trust—will soon show.
