    He was heading the Judicial inquiry into Dec 19, 2019, Mangalore police firing and death during the CAA protests. It is 2 years and the inquiry was not complete and the report is pending. You can understand his efficiency and the inquiry will be dead along with the dead people. What happened to the sand mafia everyone knows. Priyanka Francis and Koralpatti controlled them and the next DC let everything loose. So we don't see Priyanka and Koralpatti. But Jagadeesha gets a promotion. All the best for new venture. You have big political future

    Jagadeesha is not a hard working but smart working person...he knows how to please and whom to please in the top level politicians..anyone who gets promoted so soon is bound to have good clout among politicians.. our country and state is totally corrupt so you can imagine how smart is jagadeesha..he will definitely be the chief secretary 10 years down the line for sure..in fact he is not IAS I believe..
