Manish Kumar Sinha took charge as the new Police Commissioner of Vizag on Monday. The 2000-batch IPS officer, who earlier worked as the Intelligence Chief of Andhra Pradesh, was greeted by the outgoing Commissioner, Rajiv Kumar Meena as he assumed charge in the city.
After assuming office, the new Police Commissioner of Vizag interacted with the media. Manish Kumar Sinha said that Visakhapatnam is a peaceful city. Stating that he would work towards maintaining law and order in Vizag, the new CP informed that legal action would be taken against those who violate the rules.
