A senior IPS officer from Rajasthan, who was shunted out of mid-career training from the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel National Police Academy (SVPNPA) in Hyderabad on Monday, has failed to report for duty at the Police Headquarters in Jaipur.

Additional Director General Indu Kumar Bhushan was forcibly put on board a Delhi-bound flight on Monday after he reportedly argued with Andhra Pradesh and Telangana Governor E S L Narasimhan during a question-and-answer session at the academy.

Rajasthan Director General of Police Manoj Kumar Bhatt told DH: "I received a phone call from academy Director Aruna Bahuguna on Monday afternoon and she mentioned about Indu Kumar's misbehaviour. The director informed me that they were sending him back to Jaipur. But so far I have not received any information from Indu Kumar and also he has not reported at the Police Headquarters in Jaipur till Tuesday evening."

"We have sought a detailed report from the academy and we will assess the nature of his misconduct. If he is found guilty, the department will take action against him," Bhatt added.

The mid-term programme is mandatory for all IPS officers. Indu Kumar, who was among 40-odd officers undergoing the training entered into a verbal duel with Narasimhan, who was a former IB chief, regarding the misuse of Right to Information Act. After Narasimhan completed his inaugural speech, Indu Kumar wanted to know why the governor during his speech called RTI activists as mafia.

According to sources, the argument continued for almost eight minutes. He did not relent even after the governor's ADC tried to pacify him.
