Madhya Pradesh cadre IPS officer Abhishek Tiwari (IPS: 2013: MP) has applied for voluntary retirement from the Indian Police Service, citing personal reasons. The move has come as a surprise within police and administrative circles.
Tiwari is currently on central deputation with the National Technical Research Organisation (NTRO).
During his tenure in Madhya Pradesh, he served as Superintendent of Police in districts such as Balaghat, Shahdol and Ratlam, handling several sensitive law-and-order assignments. Some of these postings were in areas affected by Left Wing Extremism, where he was involved in counter-insurgency operations.
He was awarded the President’s Police Medal for Gallantry for his role in a major anti-Naxalite encounter. Within the force, Tiwari was known for his use of data analytics, technical surveillance and intelligence-led policing, which aided in tracking and arresting hardened criminals.
