Chapter 61: Captain of the Action Team

The position of Mumbai Police Chief is currently vacant and many people are eyeing it and want to compete for it.

The competition here is so fierce, and there are so many big guys involved, that Roton felt his scalp tingling just thinking about it.

In the fierce battle between dragons and tigers, apart from Rotten, it would be impossible to predict who will win in the end.

Shiva Nandan is not the only deputy director of the Maharashtra police station, so the position of Mumbai police chief is basically a competition among these deputy directors. Of course, it is also possible that he will be parachuted in from outside.

The rank of the Director General of the Maharashtra Police Department is Director General of Police, the Deputy Director General is Additional Director General of Police, while the rank of the Commissioner of Mumbai Police is Special Director General of Police.

The insignia of the three police ranks are the same, for example, the shoulder straps are two crossed sabers and a baton, with the Indian national emblem above.

The Commissioner General of Police is the highest rank in the police force, equivalent to the rank of Lieutenant General in the army. The Director General of Police in each state is definitely the Commissioner General of Police, but a person with the rank of Commissioner General of Police is not necessarily the Director General.

After all, it is possible that there may be multiple police chiefs in office in a state at the same time. If this is the case, there will only be one director general and the others can only hold lower-level positions.

However, it is rare for multiple people to be police chiefs at the same time. In order to avoid conflicts of rank, there is usually only one police chief in a state police department, and the others can only be replaced after he retires.

The three director-level police ranks mentioned above are, from highest to lowest, Commissioner of Police, Special Commissioner of Police and Additional Commissioner of Police.

The latter two can be regarded as the rank of major general and lieutenant general, which is naturally lower than the chief inspector of police.

The Special Director General of Police usually serves as the police chief of important cities such as Mumbai and Kolkata. Even if he serves as the Deputy Director General, his status in terms of police rank is second only to that of the State Director General.

The Additional Director General of Police usually serves as the Deputy Director General or the head of some important department in the Directorate General.

In the competition for the position of Commissioner of Mumbai Police, Shiva Nandan finally won, which has something to do with his experience.

He had served as the Chief Police Officer of Nagpur Division. Nagpur, the capital city of Nagpur, is the third largest city in Maharashtra, after Mumbai and Pune. He has extensive experience in local law enforcement.

Of course, the most important thing is that he has participated in and handled many major terrorist attacks, such as the 1993 Mumbai serial bombings, which killed 257 people and injured 713 people. In terms of casualties, it was even more serious than the Mumbai terrorist attack.

There was also the hijacking of an Indian passenger plane in 1999.

So he has rich experience in combating organized crime and dealing with terrorist attacks.

However, this was only the disclosure report that Roton saw in the news that year. Shiva certainly could not have risen to power relying solely on these. It is unknown how many connections he used, and how many secret compromises and transactions were involved.

After all, the Commissioner of Mumbai Police holds a high position and has great power. The most important thing is that after becoming the Commissioner of Mumbai Police, the next step will basically be the Commissioner General of the Maharashtra Police Department, the top leader of a state police system.

Roton was naturally surprised. He thought that he had made the right choice to rely on Pirando. He did not expect that the person behind him would be the future chief of the Mumbai Police Department. He had a bright future.

In this case, there would be no problem if I didn't have to be transferred out of Mumbai, right? However, I thought about it again. I had never met Shiva, and the relationship was only established indirectly through Pirando. Especially since the status between me and Shiva was too different, Shiva would never really take me seriously.

Therefore, only by following Pirando can one get greater care and be more comfortable within the police system.

If Shiva really becomes the Chief of the Mumbai Police Department or even the Chief of the Maharashtra Police Department in the future, Pirando will naturally benefit from it, and it will also mean that he will also be able to gain huge benefits.

"Director, you are exaggerating. What contribution can I make in such a high-level competition?" said Roton.

"You can't say that." Pirando sighed, "Now is the critical moment of the competition. Any disturbance can affect the situation and break the balance. The last time the old leader talked about you, he was happy from the bottom of his heart. It can be seen that because of you, the old leader really gained a lot of benefits in this competition."

"It is a real pleasure and I believe the Commissioner of Mumbai Police will definitely be Mr. Shiva Nandan," said Rawdon.

Pirando laughed and said, "I can only say that the chances are better now. No one can be sure until the end. It's a pity that I can't help much with these things. I can only rely on the old leader himself."

Roton thought about it and it made sense. This was almost the highest-level game in the Mabon police system. Even Pirando was not qualified, so logically speaking, he should be even less qualified.

However, his performance in this terrorist attack unexpectedly brought some benefits to Shiva Nandan, making him come into the sight of this big boss.

Although Rodon knew that Shiva would have succeeded in the end even without his involvement, Pirando and the others didn't know that.

If Shiva really becomes the chief of the Mumbai Police Department in the future, he might look at me differently. In their eyes, I have only made a small contribution here.

Thinking of this, Rawdon felt even better.

A week later, Pirandu left Mumbai and went to Pune to serve as the district police chief.

And Rawdon's specific position was also given: the captain of the Spanda Police Department's operations team, which was North's previous position. He was responsible for some major cases in the jurisdiction, such as homicide, theft and robbery of large amounts, etc.

The higher-ups believed that Rotun had sufficient military power and was the most suitable person for the position.

The captain of the action team is the third most important person in the police station besides the chief and deputy chief. After all, he controls the main police force of the police station.

Luoton thought that the higher-ups still gave him face for the title of Mumbai Hero. The inspector didn't give it to him, and the deputy director didn't give it to him. If the third-in-command didn't give it to him either, that would be really unreasonable.

The bastard above was barely being a human being.

In fact, for Rawdon, the position didn't matter, because according to Pirando, he could be transferred to Pune in a month or two at most.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

The candidate for deputy chief of Spanda Police Station has not been decided yet. I heard that the higher-ups are undecided about the candidate for the time being.

What does it mean to be indecisive? Roton knew it very well. It was actually because of the fierce competition and countless people playing the game.

This is similar to the competition for the position of Mumbai Police Commissioner, and everyone is trying their best.

Of course, there is a huge difference between the two levels and they cannot be compared.

There are only a few positions for grassroots directors and deputy directors, which is too few compared to the number of inspectors.

Now that there is a vacant position for deputy director, these idle inspectors are trying their best to find connections and backers. In addition, the new district director has just arrived and is obviously still in a wait-and-see state regarding these matters. He has not made a direct decision, so the situation is deadlocked for a while.

Although the grassroots police in Mumbai face complicated cases and other issues, they also have a lot of benefits. The deputy director cannot compare with the director, but he is still the second in command and has great power.

It is definitely very convenient to make money. For example, Gert made a lot of money as the deputy director.

Rotten also asked Pirando about the new chief of Mumbai's North Central Police Station. After all, he would be here for a while. Of course, he also helped North find out about the new chief's temper.

Pirando told Rawdon that the new district chief was quite pragmatic and had been ruthless in cracking down on criminal activities within his jurisdiction, so the security in the area under his jurisdiction was much better than that in other surrounding districts.

In this case, Rotten has nothing to worry about. It's nothing for him, as he won't stay here long. But if someone like North, who has no background, does not suit his boss's taste, then he will be in trouble.

Being a pragmatic district director would definitely be beneficial to North, and North would definitely have no problem in this regard.

I will go to Pune in the future. My parents and family are still here. With Director North taking care of them, there will definitely be no problems.

At the same time, Pirando also told Rawdon that the man behind the new district chief was a big shot that his old leader Shiva Nandan was trying to win over, because this big shot had a certain say in the appointment of the chief of the Mumbai Police Department.

Now, people like Shiva Nandan who have the opportunity to compete for the position of Mumbai Police Chief want to bring these people with a say into their camp.

Unfortunately, the other party has not made a clear statement yet and is in a neutral state, which makes him even more of an object that everyone needs to win over.
