Former Mumbai Police Commissioner M.N. Singh has criticized the frequent transfers of Mumbai Police Commissioners, stating that such frequent changes negatively impact the policing system and prevent officers from implementing long-term strategies. Singh, who spoke at the launch of senior journalist Prabhakar Pawar’s book on the history of Mumbai Police Commissioners, emphasized the need for stability in the position of Mumbai Police Commissioner.
Since 1947, only a handful of commissioners have served for more than a year, with many holding their positions for only a few months. Singh believes that an officer with at least Director General of Police (DGP) rank should be appointed as Mumbai Police Commissioner.
