"Retirement Not Linked To Sushant Case": Ex Bihar Top Cop Amid Poll Buzz | Read

Gupteshwar Pandey, after quitting as Bihar police chief last evening, said today that his decision had nothing to do with the Sushant Singh Rajput case, which has become a political talking point ahead of the state's election just weeks away. Mr Pandey's request for voluntary retirement was approved on Tuesday by the Bihar government, which has waived a three-month mandatory cooling off period. Reports suggest he is keen on contesting the Bihar election as a candidate of the ruling National Democratic Alliance (NDA) from Sahpur in Buxar district.
