” This act is nothing but a deliberate attempt to encroach upon State’s jurisdiction and demoralize the serving officers in WB. This move, particularly before the elections is against the basic tenets of the federal structure. It’s unconstitutional & completely unacceptable!”
The Centre asked the West Bengal government to immediately relieve the three IPS officers for joining the central deputation.
