Rules will be formed for transfer of police personnel: Home Minister G. Parameshwara
Bengaluru: Karnataka Home Minister announced that proper rules will be formulated for transfer of police constable at inter-district level. He was addressing the reporters in the city on Monday.
He pointed out that till now there were no rules on the transfer of constables. “This time, transfers involving husband and wife will be done. I have discussed this matter with the Director General of Police. The issue of inter-district transfers will be resolved soon."
Responding to allegations from the BJP that the government is showing partiality in cases, particularly in the illegal activities involving the Valmiki Corporation compared to actor Darshan's case, Parameshwara asserted that the government is not protecting any wrongdoers. "Action will be taken according to the law, regardless of whether the culprits are officers or political figures," he said.

He clarified that the CBI is investigating the fraud involving bank officials, while the SIT is probing the fraud within the department. Addressing the BJP's protests and threats to besiege the Chief Minister's house, he remarked, "Let them protest, who says no? It is natural for accusations to be made against ministers and MLAs during investigations. Action will be taken based on the investigation report."
Regarding the impact of the three new criminal laws enacted in the country, Parameshwara noted that it is too early to assess their effects. "These new laws will apply to cases registered from today. We will have to see how they are addressed in court once cases are registered," he added.
