The state Home department’s delay in taking action against IPS officer Abhishekh Goyal in accordance with the recommendations of the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel National Police Academy (NPA), Hyderabad, may come as a set back for a host of Karnataka officer's anticipating promotion.

The NPA, on December 15, 2015, had recommended action against Goyal for his ‘misconduct, gross indiscipline and insubordination’ during his mid-career training (MCT) in November 2015.

The NPA had suggested DG&IGP Om Prakash to hold a departmental inquiry and recover Rs 62,393 from Goyal within 30 days of the receipt of the letter and refund the money to the NPA. The NPA had stated in the letter that it would be difficult to accept further nominations for the MCT from Karnataka if the recommendations are not implemented within the deadline.

“We will inform the government once we receive the state police chief’s response for further action. A decision would be taken at the government level,” the official said. Goyal is currently Deputy Commissioner of Police, (CAR Headquarters), Bengaluru.

A show-cause notice was issued to him. On the second day, Goyal insisting on bringing his family on the bus from Gold Coast in spite of clear instructions that families would not be allowed to travel. On the third day, Goyal requested that he be exempted from the final leg of the programme in Melbourne. Despite refusal of exemption, Goyal did not attend the last leg of the programme at Melbourne, missed his flight and stayed back in Brisbane, the NPA letter states.
