The government has instructed all transferred officers to assume their new roles immediately. This reshuffle follows a broader trend of recent administrative changes, including the reassignment of ten IPS officers earlier in the week. The transfers come as the state prepares for upcoming by-elections for ten seats, marking a period of heightened administrative activity.
