Umesh
Chandra was undoubtedly the most reputed police officer in the history
of Andhra Pradesh police. He was loved by the people and the police
where ever he worked. He was severe on antisocial elements and was
very affectionate to the people. He created tremors in the backbones
of the naxalites and factionists by showing them, what police are
capable of. In his tenure as SP of Cuddapah district, which was
considered as second most troublesome district in India, he restored
normal conditions within no time, with his extraordinary abilities.
He was called cuddapah tiger by the people of Cuddapah.
