HYDERABAD: A senior IPS officer from Rajasthan was deported, after much drama, from a training programme at the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel National Police Academy, Hyderabad for allegedly misbehaving with governor of Telangana and Andhra Pradesh ESL Narasimhan on Monday.

Additional director general of police Indu Kumar Bhushan, a 1989-batch IPS officer, reportedly threatened to slit his throat if he was sent back, prompting the NPA security and other staff to forcibly take him to the airport and put him on board a Jaipur flight.

Bhushan, in-charge of the prisons department in Jaipur, had an argument with governor, who visited the training programme at the NPA.

According to NPA sources, Narasimhan was interacting with the officers, when Bhushan started questioning why the governor in the past had called RTI activists “mafia” for seeking certain information from the Raj Bhavan.

Narasimhan, incidentally is a retired IPS officer and served as Director of the Intelligence Bureau.
