Senior IPS officer Rashmi Shukla was reinstated as the director general of police (DGP) of Maharashtra, officials said here on Tuesday.
The order was issued late on Monday evening.
Earlier, on November four, she was temporarily transferred by the Election Commission of India (ECI) ahead of the Maharashtra Assembly elections.
The poll body had instructed the state’s chief secretary to hand over her charge to the next senior-most IPS officer in the cadre. Following her transfer, IPS Sanjay Kumar Verma was appointed as the acting DGP.
Rashmi Shukla, a 1988 batch IPS officer, is the first woman to hold the position of Maharashtra DGP.
