Indian Express: Kochi: Wednesday, May 31, 2017.
The state
police have reconstituted the internal Vigilance cell to check corruption in the
force. Crime Branch chief ADGP Nithin Agarwal will head the cell.
The decision
to restore the cell was taken by state police chief T P Senkumar in a special
meeting convened in the police headquarters.
The cell will
come under the purview of Right to Information Act. The DGP also issued an
order in this regard on May 20.
Agarwal will
be the Chief Vigilance officer while Dinendra Kashyap IG, Mahipal Yadav IG, A
Srinivas and P N Unnirajan are the members of the panel. The DGP decided to restore the cell after
some RTI activists filed a query on the functioning of the cell.
