All's not well with Bihar top cops
DGP Ashish Ranjan Sinha is in an unenviable position. At a public function held at A N College a few months ago, one citizen told him about the rumours that chief minister Nitish Kumar wanted to remove him. "But the CM will not remove you because you are a Kurmi, the CM's casteman," he added right before the red-faced police official.
Indeed, the state police headquarters is divided in castes and groups and acts of IPS officials are often marked with indiscipline, insubordination and lack of professionalism. Wars are fought on letters in the police headquarters. So much so that former ADG (CID) Baljit Singh, peeved at the fight between an IG and a DIG working under him, wrote, "Please do not make the files a battleground." Take these: Former DGP K A Jacob had to face the embarrassment of seeing a noting made by a junior IPS official in a file which read, the DGP is economically 'offender-friendly'. Another former DGP D P Ojha was flatly refused the details about the Secret Service Funds being spent by the CID. Controversial DIG A K Verma refused to obey former DGP Narayan Mishra's directive to remain on duty at the police control room. A DIG-rank official refused to obey his IG... Click on full story....

The letters of junior police officials about their seniors often border on sarcasm. A BMP commandant, replying to a showcause issued by the DIG on purchase of herbal plants, sarcastically remarked that herbal plants help policemen keep their head 'cool'. "It will also keep your mind cool," the IPS officer wrote to his DIG.
Caste-based or otherwise, groupism often led to attempts to nail 'rival' officers. A few years ago, an old case against the current Tirhut IG, Suneet Kumar, was sought to be reopened just because his brother acted in a TV serial which lampooned Lalu-Rabri. This despite the fact that the probe earlier had given him a clean chit. Several IPS officers have either "fled" on Central deputation or quit their jobs after they were shunted from one post to another, purely because of their caste affiliation. DIG Rituraj quit his job two years ago and joined a private company after he was shunted to Muzaffarpur. The latest controversy relating to DIG (rail) Ajay Verma, in which he has been charged with misusing his official position in a property dispute case, has also cast aspersions on the functioning of the state police. Verma in his letter to the home commissioner has remarked that the "Tirhut IG suffers from abject legal infirmity, reflecting poor knowledge and understanding of law." Verma as SP in vigilance bureau reportedly defied the then ADG Ashish Ranjan Sinha (now DGP). Sinha had even written for his transfer.
