SN Shrivastava appointed Delhi Police Commissioner

Indian Police Service (IPS) officer SN Shrivastava was appointed as the next Commissioner of Delhi Police, days after he was brought in as the special commissioner of police for law and order amid violence in the city. Shrivastava took over as the new Delhi Police chief after the current commissioner Amulya Patnaik retired.

The Union Ministry of Home Affairs cleared the post for the 1985 batch officer of the Arunachal Pradesh-Goa-Mizoram and Union Territory (AGMUT) cadre officer. The government has brought SN Shrivastava to Delhi Police from the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF), where he was posted as Special Director-General.

Shrivastava has experience of working in different units in Delhi Police over the years, including Special Cell, and leading investigations against Indian Mujahideen apart from successful tenure in the traffic police and several districts.
