Senior IPS officer Nalin Prabhat (IPS:1992:AP) on Monday evening (30.09.2024) took over as the Director General of Police (DGP) of Jammu and Kashmir, following the retirement of RR Swain (IPS:1991:AGMUT). Prabhat received the baton from Swain during a simple ceremony at the police headquarters in Jammu.
Prabhat was appointed as the next DGP of Jammu and Kashmir on August 15, 2024. To facilitate his appointment, his tenure as Director General (DG) of the National Security Guard (NSG) was curtailed, allowing for his inter-cadre deputation to the AGMUT cadre for an initial period of three years. This move ensured that he could assume the role of Police Chief after Swain’s retirement on September 30.
