A police officer said Naresh was informed at the hospital that his uncle had died. The Appointments Committee of Cabinet (ACC) Tuesday cleared the empanelment of officiating Punjab Police chief Gaurav Yadav as a director general of police on central deputation.
Gaurav Yadav, who belongs to the 1992 batch of the Indian Police Service IPS, was appointed as the Punjab officiating DGP in July 2022 when his predecessor V K Bhawra went on a two-month leave.
