Thiruvananthapuram: The Home secretary has submitted a report recommending action against Kollam City Police Commissioner in connection with the Puttingal temple tragedy.
He also pointed out in the report that there was a serious lapse on the part of the police in the mishap
However, the DGP T P Senkuamr said it was inappropriate to victimise police officers alone.
“Now it is evident that lapses happened at various stages. Hence the move to make police personnel scapegoats will have a demoralizing effect on the entire force,” he said.
“The entire district administration is responsible for the mishap,” the DGP adds.
