"S Davidson Devasirvatham IPS, Inspector General of Police, Intelligence, Chennai is transferred and posted as Inspector General of Police, Welfare, Chennai, in the existing vacancy," a note from Principal Home Secretary Apurva Verma said.
Devasirvatham was posted as IG (Intelligence) on February 12 in the midst of a political stalemate in Tamil Nadu following the internal feud in ruling AIADMK, more than a year after he was shunted out from the post by the state government.
He was IG (Welfare) when being transferred on February 12 and replaced then Intelligence chief K N Sathiyamurthy.
