In anticipation of the Lok Sabha elections, 147 police officers in Coimbatore city, including second-level constables, head constables, and special sub-inspectors, have been transferred.


Coimbatore: Ahead of the upcoming Lok Sabha elections, a significant reshuffling has occurred within the Coimbatore city police force. Senior police officials announced that 147 police personnel who have been serving in the same station for over three years have been transferred. This move aims to ensure impartiality and efficiency during the election period.

The transferred officers include second-level constables, head constables, and special sub-inspectors. The reshuffling has been implemented across two divisions of the city police department - North and South. These personnel have been moved between different law and order and traffic divisions within these two sectors.

Of the 147 personnel, 52 are special sub-inspectors and 67 are head constables. This decision is part of the department's routine practice to prevent any potential bias and maintain a high standard of law enforcement, especially during critical events like elections.
