Srinagar: National Conference Vice President and former Chief Minister Omar Abdullah Friday said that appointment of a temporary Director General Police will only add to the confusion of the Jammu and Kashmir police.
“Changing the DG is the prerogative of the administration but why a DG as a temporary arrangement? The current DG won’t know if he’s going to stay & others who would like his job will be trying to replace him. None of this is good for @JmuKmrPolice. There was no hurry to replace @spvaid. He should have been changed only when a permanent arrangement had been worked out. @JmuKmrPolice has enough problems without having to deal with confusion of leadership,: Omar tweeted.
Jammu and Kashmir police chief S P Vaid was unceremoniously removed late Thursday and Dilbagh Singh, the Director General of Prisons, was directed to hold the charge additionally, an official order said.
