<b>KPS Gill unlikely to get extension</b><!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->"Gill was useless. He failed to coordinate with frontline police officers of the state while formulating plans for anti-insurgency operations. He has tried to tackle Maoist guerrillas in the same way as he tackled militants in Punjab with great success," a home department official, who did not want to be identified, told IANS. He is among those officials who had advised the government not to give Gill a second term.
"The combat method of militants active in the plain terrain of Punjab is totally different from that in Chhattisgarh, where Maoists are active in its hilly areas. Any expert cannot achieve success in Chhattisgarh till they go through in depth about the Maoists' terror modus operandi," a police official said. Both officials declined to be quoted.
