In Kerala, 28 IPS officers have failed to file their annual immovable property returns (IPR) for 2010, despite three deadlines given to them by the Home Ministry. The Ministry of Home Affairs has issued a notice to chief secretaries of all states, warning them that defaulting officers will not get vigilance clearance. This could adversely affect their posting and promotions. As the last deadline of 10 October has lapsed, the Ministry has made public the names of officers who are yet to file their IPRs. Kerala has around 90 IPS officers. The defaulters include officers of ADGP rank. Across the country, 864 officers are yet to file their IPRs. The list includes the state police chiefs of Delhi, Bihar, Sikkim and Uttar Pradesh.
