The Election Commission has granted Rajya Sabha MP Ahmed Patel’s demand and transferred police sub inspector. The ECI has also transferred a district police chief. Ahmed Patel had threatened dharna today if his demands were not accepted.

In reaction, just in two days, the Election Commission has transferred PSI Bharwad to Police Training School(Vadodara). In another development the Election Commission has transferred Narmada district police chief Pravin Mal to Crime Branch in Vadodara. Mal has been replaced with Jaypalsinh Rathore.
