|            | Patna, (Bihar Times): The Bihar government on Friday 
      said that an investigation was underway on the 
      sensitive issue of police officials not   surrendering 
      the government arms even after their retirement or 
      going on   central deputation. 
 According to the power minister Vijendra Yadav   there
      are reports of IPS officials, going on central
      deputation, without   submitting their official arms. He
      said some of these officials have even   retired yet
      they have not returned their revolvers. The minister
      was   replying to a short-notice question of senior RJD
      MLA Abdul Bari Siddiqu in   the state assembly on
      Friday. The minister assured the House that   action
      would be taken once the inquiry report comes.
 
 Earlier, Siddiqui   claimed that 18 IPS officers had  
      gone on central deputation or on   deputation to
  Jharkhand without submitting their official revolvers
  which   attracted stringent punitive action. He said the
  matter had come to light   after six rifles were found
  missing from Bihar Military Police (BMP)   headquarters
  in Muzaffarpur sometimes back.
