Some Lesser Known Facts About Sheikh Darvesh Saheb

Sheikh Darvesh Saheb is an Indian Police Services (IPS) officer from the 1990 batch of the Kerala cadre. In July 2023, he was appointed as the Director General of Police (DGP) of Kerala.

He completed his Master of Science (MSc) under the guidance of Dr. T. Yallamanda Reddy, who was the former Dean of Agriculture at Acharya N. G. Ranga Agricultural University (ANGRAU).

While pursuing his doctorate at IARI (Indian Agricultural Research Institute), he began preparing for the Indian Civil Services and successfully cleared the UPSC (Union Public Service Commission) examination in 1990.

His appointment as DGP of Kerala came as a surprise to many police officers as he was superseded for the post. However, senior bureaucrats in Kerala claimed that Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan chose him based on his clean record, and the ruling party CPI(M) wanted to appeal to Muslim voters. ^[3]India Today
