New Delhi: Even as the Delhi Police is facing questions on the handling of the Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) case, its chief BS Bassi is likely to get a promotion.

According to sources, the Delhi Police commissioner is likely to become the next Information Commissioner. The selection panel is slated to choose the information commissioner on February 19.

Notably, Bassi is scheduled to retire from police service at the end of February.

Reacting to the development, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Ashutosh said that it was shocking that a police commissioner who could not administer Delhi was being awarded.

"It shows that those who are helping government are being awarded...Bassi has been working on the behest of the top leaders in the government," he said.

This comes on a day the Delhi Police chief briefed the Prime Minister's Office on the entire JNU episode. Speaking to mediapersons after the meeting, Bassi had said that they has enough evidence against JNU Students Union (JNUSU) president Kanhaiya Kumar, who has been arrested on sedition charges.

What's your reaction?
