Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court held that the transfer of Dr. T.P. Senkumar from the position of State Police Chief before the completion of his two-year tenure, as mandated by Section 97 of The Kerala Police Act, 2011, was unjustified. The Court emphasized that such displacement requires serious consideration and valid reasons, which were absent in this case. Consequently, the Court ruled in favor of the appellant, reinstating him to his position as State Police Chief.
