whispers in the corridors
Intelligence Bureau (IB) Chief (7)

IB Director Tapan Kumar Deka, a 1988-batch Himachal Pradesh cadre IPS officer, completes his extended term on June 30, 2026. Upon completion of his original term in June 2024, Deka was granted a one-year extension till June 30, 2025, followed by a second one-year extension, extending his tenure further.
Who will succeed him?
Indication of him getting another one-year extension is not ruled out. Meanwhile names of Special Director Mahesh Dixit and IB hardcore Sunil Acharya have started doing the round for the post.
