  • Das is a 2014 batch IPS officer and had joined the post of SP less than a month back.

    Notably, the posting was a major promotion, giving him his first independent charge of a district.

    However, despite the advancement in his career, Das had reportedly been upset over a discord in his family.

    It's believed that the discord drove him towards suicide.
