UP DGP Mukul Goel Booted Out, Named New Boss Of Civil Defence

Lucknow, May 11 (TNA) In a significant development late on Wednesday, Uttar Pradesh Director General Of Police (DG) Mukul Goel was booted out and sent to an insignificant post of DG Civil Defense. He was made the police chief of the biggest force in the state in July last year after the then DGP HC Awasthi hung his boots.

He was reportedly axed for showing no interest in government work and for derelction of duty. Goel is a 1987 batch Indian Police Service (IPS) officer. There is no word yet on who will replace him.
