In February, the office of the director-general of police issued a reminder to sections in the department about the release of the APIs but we are still here. Most of us have taken the leaving certificates of our children from schools but we are unable to secure their admission on time, said the one of the transferred policemen.

A senior Mumbai police official, who requested not to be named, said, It is true that 55 APIs were not released because we did not get replacement for them. But in the coming days, we will release these 55 APIs.
