Tamboli has served in several districts, including Hingoli, Bhokar, and Wardha, before being promoted to IPS in 2005. Most recently, Tamboli held the position of Joint Commissioner of the State Intelligence Department (SID) in Mumbai. Tamboli’s appointment is seen as a significant development for Nagpur’s police force, with expectations that his wealth of experience will enhance law enforcement efforts in the city, often referred to as the Second Capital of Maharashtra.
