“The directive has to be followed under all conditions,” the letter concludes. The fake directive bears a file noting issued by the DGP's office and a copy has been marked to Inspector General of Police (Bastar Range)
R K Vij and Inspector General of Police (Anti-Naxal Operations) Girdhari Nayak for necessary action.
Speaking to The Indian Express, DGP Vishwaranjan confirmed that such a fake letter had been unearthed. “There is no need to conduct an inquiry into the incident,” he added.
Sources stated that the letter can also be a handiwork of office politics between senior police officers of the force. When contacted, DIG (Kanker Range) Pawan Deo refused to comment on the issue.
