Chandigarh, Oct. 15 -- A week after Haryana IPS officer Y Puran Kumar allegedly died by suicide, the Haryana government on Tuesday eased out director general of police (DGP) Shatrujeet Kapur, asking him to proceed on leave, amid growing clamour for action against him after the family of the deceased officer sought his arrest, holding him and former Rohtak SP Narendra Bijarniya responsible for the death. A 1992-batch officer, OP Singh, has been given the additional charge of state DGP during the leave period of Kapur. OP Singh is slated to retire on December 31, 2025. The orders issued by additional chief secretary, home, Sumita Misra on October 14, however, did not specify the duration of Kapur's leave. The state government had on Saturday shifted Bijarniya from the post of superintendent of police, Rohtak. In his nine-page "final note" on October 7, 2001-batch IPS officer Puran Kumar, 52, accused eight senior IPS officers, including Kapur and Bijarniya, of "blatant caste-based discrimination, targeted mental harassment, public humiliation and atrocities". Kumar's wife Amneet P Kumar, who is an IAS officer, has sought the arrest of Kapur and Bijarniya and refused to give consent for a post-mortem till the demands are met. After the registration of the FIR, the Chandigarh Police constituted a six-member special investigation team to investigate the case. After taking over the additional charge of DGP, OP Singh addressed police officers and personnel across the state through wireless communication. He said: "Both the public and the government have great expectations from the police, and we will work with utmost dedication to live up to them." "We will tighten the noose around fraudsters and criminals as they have no place in a civilised society," he added....
