Overview

• A six-member Special Investigation Team led by IGP Pushpendra Kumar was constituted to conduct a prompt, impartial inquiry into FIR No. 156/2025.
• The FIR cites Section 108 read with 3(5) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita and Section 3(1)(r) of the SC/ST Act based on the deceased officer’s eight-page final note.
• The note names multiple senior officials, including Haryana DGP Shatrujeet Singh Kapur and Rohtak SP Narendra Bijarniya, alleging years of caste-based harassment and humiliation.
• The National Commission for Scheduled Castes issued a notice to Chandigarh authorities seeking a detailed report within seven days on the discrimination allegations.
• The officer’s wife, IAS officer Amneet P Kumar, has asked police to amend the FIR to explicitly list all accused and strengthen SC/ST sections, as arrangements progress for a PGIMER autopsy after earlier delays to last rites.
