The much anticipated buzz at various police stations in the city was conspicuously missing on Tuesday, as many circle inspectors who have either been transferred or given new postings, seemed to have preferred not to take charge of their new assignments ahead of lunar eclipse on Wednesday.
Commissioner D. Gautam Sawang transferred 18 CIs in the commissionerate. The orders were issued late on Monday night. However, it is learnt that following the advice of astrologers and family elders, many officers decided not to join the new postings before or on ‘chandra grahanam’ day.
