Singh will be replaced by Zulfiqar Hassan, IG, (administration), who is also currently posted at the Writers’ Buildings.
Only a day before, Singh was named as a member of the three-member committee headed by Home Secretary Ardhendu Sen to probe into the attack on the Silda camp.
Asked if it has anything to do with the Silda attack, Sen said, “Well, not exactly. But of course, the move has been taken to tone up the administration in the Left-Wing Extremism (LWE) affected areas.”
The committee, set up yesterday, has been given two months to submit its report.
As part of the reshuffle, DIG (Midnapore range) Piyush Pandey will be replaced by DIG (Railways) Anil Kumar. Pandey has been transferred to Delhi.
In politically sensitive East Midnapore district, Ashok Biswas will take over as SP replacing Bastava Vaidya, who will join the CID as a special superintendent.
