THIRUVANANTHAPURM: Jail DGP Jacob who has been caught in a controversy for allegedly favouring the TP murder case accused may be served an immediate transfer order. The government has also reached a strong decision to remove the DGP from his post and it is known that the home minister will take a decision regarding this after meeting the chief minister.
The home minister had yesterday itself expressed the government’s disapproval of the DGP’s public statements. An explanation was also sought from the DGP to which he had not replied till morning.
The action will be taken most probably after the reply. However it is not clear whether the government will wait for long to take action while the DGP’s reply is expected by today itself.
There has also been a demand to consider Transport Commissioner Rishi Raj Singh’s name for the post.
When the leaders from the ruling party have come out with the demand to remove the DGP, there have been differences of opinion within the CPM. Many CPM leaders have come out in support of the DGP while Opposition leader V S Achuthanandan has come out against Jacob.
