Jharkhand Finance Minister Radhakrishna Kishore Returns Security and Vehicles Amid Political Tensions Ranchi, June 30, 2026 — Jharkhand Finance Minister Radhakrishna Kishore has returned his convoy vehicles and personal security personnel, sparking speculation about growing tensions within the state government. The move comes amid reports of a heated exchange between Kishore and the state’s Director General of Police (DGP), who has faced criticism for alleged negligence in handling security protocols. According to sources, Kishore, who has been a vocal critic of the DGP’s handling of security matters, wrote a formal letter to the DGP on June 29, 2026, expressing his dissatisfaction with the arrangement. The letter, which has not been publicly disclosed, reportedly highlighted concerns over the adequacy of security measures and the lack of coordination between law enforcement agencies and state officials. Kishore’s decision to return his security detail and vehicles has raised eyebrows, as it marks a rare public display of frustration from a senior minister. The move is seen as a symbolic gesture, reflecting his dissatisfaction with the current administration’s approach to governance and law enforcement. Background of the Tensions The tensions between Kishore and the DGP are not new. Earlier this year, Kishore had publicly criticized the DGP for failing to address security lapses during a high-profile event in Ranchi. The incident led to a public outcry and prompted calls for an investigation into the DGP’s handling of the situation. In response, the state government reportedly initiated an internal review of the DGP’s performance, but Kishore has remained unconvinced.#director_general_of_police #jharkhand #jharkhand_finance_minister #radhakrishna_kishore #security_protocols
