MHA Transfers 21 IAS and 40 IPS Officers Across AGMUT Cadre Including ChandigarhPreviousNext

The Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) has implemented a significant reshuffle involving 21 IAS and 40 IPS officers across the AGMUT cadre, affecting regions including Chandigarh, Delhi, Jammu Kashmir, Arunachal Pradesh, Goa, Mizoram, Puducherry, Ladakh, and Lakshadweep. In Chandigarh, three IPS officers—Manjeet, Geetanjali Khandelwal, and K M Priyanka—were transferred out, with Rajesh Kumar Sharma and Vinit Kumar posted in. This reshuffle temporarily reduces Chandigarh's IPS strength by one officer.
