Letika Saran

Letika Saran is the former Director General of Police, Tamil Nadu, India.

She entered the Tamil Nadu Indian Police Service in 1976 as one of the first two women to be admitted, the other being Thilagavathi.

In October 2010, the Madras High Court overturned Saran's appointment and ruled that a list of three eligible candidates must be presented from which the state government would make their selection.

[4] The state government, "after due consideration and in full compliance with the directions of the Supreme Court," again chose Saran from the list.

Along with the volunteers, she also interacted with the public, distributed awareness pamphlets[9] and spoke to them about the importance of following road safety rules.
