Udupi, Dec 30: "The news making the rounds about the transfer of district superintendent of police, Annamalai, who has proved himself to be an efficient officer, to Bengaluru is just a rumour," said district in-charge minister, Vinay Kumar Sorake.
He was reacting to recent media reports about the likely transfer of Annamalai as the deputy superintendent of police at Bengaluru.
There has been a collective opinion against the transfer of Annamalai, who has been credited with bringing the law and order situation in the district back to tracks. There have been open discussions about reported pressure being exerted by a Swamiji based in Dakshina Kannada district on behalf of the disciple of a Swamiji from here, for the transfer of district superintendent of police.
In the meantime, social worker, Dr Deviprasad Shetty, came out with the statement that he has urged the minister against transferring Annamalai out of the district.
