NEW DELHI — In a key central assignment, Parhlad Narayan Meena (IPS, UK: 2012) has been named Deputy Director (Intelligence & Coordination) at the Wildlife Crime Control Bureau (WCCB) for a tenure of five years.
Sanctioned by the Ministry of Home Affairs under the Non-Central Staffing Scheme, the move transitions the officer from state policing to a national mandate focused on combating illegal wildlife trade. The Ministry has directed the Uttarakhand government to formally relieve Meena to expedite his joining at WCCB headquarters.
