NEW DELHI — In a targeted administrative realignment within the national capital’s police apparatus, the Ministry of Home Affairs has ordered the immediate transfer and posting of two Indian Police Service (IPS) officers in Delhi.
The reshuffle splits responsibilities between senior correctional oversight and high-profile security coordination.
Key Postings and Strategic Placements
The new assignments place the incoming officers into critical operational wings of the capital’s law enforcement framework:
-
Jitendra Mani (IPS: 2016): The senior officer has been formally appointed as the Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP), Provisioning and Logistics (P&L) / Prisons Cell. In this capacity, Mani will oversee crucial logistical procurement and coordinate administrative workflows linking the police apparatus with the state’s correctional systems.
-
Ms. Sulekha Jagarwar (IPS: 2022): Moving into a high-security operational role, the young officer has been posted as the Additional Deputy Commissioner of Police (Addl. DCP), Prime Minister’s Security (PM). She will be tasked with executing stringent protocol coordination and protective security details surrounding the Prime Minister’s movements and residential security zones.
Administrative Takeaway
This dual transfer underscores the Delhi Police’s ongoing strategy of matching seasoned officers with systemic administrative portfolios while integrating younger IPS talent directly into high-responsibility operational wings like specialized VVIP security. The orders take effect immediately, with both officers expected to assume their new charges within the week.
