Haryana government issues major police reshuffle, transferring 6 HPS and 2 IPS officers. Narender Bijarniya appointed SP Karnal; Ganga Ram Punia joins ACB.

Six HPS officials and two IPS officers have received new posting orders from the Haryana government.

An official order states that IPS officer Narender Bijarniya has been assigned the position of SP, Karnal, while IPS officer Ganga Ram Punia has been appointed as Superintendent of Police, Anti-Corruption Bureau, filling a vacancy.

Bijarniya was removed from his job as Rohtak SP in October due to growing opposition criticism on IPS officer Y Puran Kumar’s reported suicide.
