Tamil Nadu’s seniormost Director-General of Police (DGP) Braj Kishore Ravi has taken voluntary retirement from service.
The 1989-batch officer of the Indian Police Service (IPS), who has three months service left for superannuation, is likely to join the Congress party and contest on the ensuing Lok Sabha election from his native Bihar.
In the recent empanelment of DGPs done by the Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) for empanelment as DGP/Head of Police Force, Mr. Ravi stood second in the panel of three. The first was Sanjay Arora, a 1988-batch IPS officer of Tamil Nadu cadre. He is on Central deputation and presently the Delhi Police Commissioner.
