A significant administrative storm is brewing in Haryana's police department following an FIR against 15 officers. The state government has formed a Special Investigation Team (SIT) to probe the matter, and according to senior sources, DGP Shatrujeet Kapoor’s removal is now under serious consideration. At least three senior IPS officers are being discussed as possible successors.

The situation escalated after the mysterious death of IG V. Pooran Kumar. Four days have passed, yet his post-mortem remains pending as the family has refused to authorize it, demanding a judicial inquiry instead. The delay in final rites and the family's reluctance have intensified pressure on the government.

In a bid to defuse the crisis, Chief Secretary Anurag Rastogi and Home Secretary Sumita Mishra visited Kumar’s wife, Amneet P. Kumar, on Friday evening. Earlier, Rural Development Minister Krishan Lal Panwar also met the family twice but failed to reach a resolution.

The family’s firm demand for a court-monitored probe reflects a growing distrust in administrative actions. This controversy has triggered serious questions over governance and transparency within Haryana's police and bureaucratic circles.

With the investigation underway and administrative changes likely, the political and institutional impact of this crisis could be far-reaching.
