HYDERABAD: On Friday evening, the office of the Additional Director General of Police (ADGP) issued orders to put the Telangana Special Police Constables (TGSP) in abeyance. The ADGP also directed Commandants to hold a “durbar” (meeting) with battalion personnel to address their grievances and make specific recommendations.
This decision followed protests by spouses, who claimed their husbands were being used as labourers on the battalion campus without official duties, and that frequent transfers were disrupting family life. Several women were but were later released.
