Early Times Report
Jammu, Oct 15: Desperate to get appointed as SSP of any of the districts in Kashmir, an IPS officer, after failing to get local politicians by his side, has got his name recommended from a Union Minister.
He was transferred and posted against an 'unimportant' post about two and a half years back, with the assurance that he would soon be posted as a district SP in the valley, but that did not happen, police sources said.
Except him, the other two officers of his batch have been posted as district SPs. However, when he did not get posted as SSP of any district in Kashmir, despite the government 'promise' to this effect, he started making efforts on his own.
Sources said through his influential relative, he approached the union minister and got his name recommended for the post of district SP. The union minister was also said to have spoken to a state BJP minister and asked him to help the IPS officer in his posting.
"The J&K BJP minister has assured the IPS officer to get him adjusted in Jammu region. Following this assurance, he looks satisfied and is quite hopeful about his posting as SSP of any district of Jammu region," the sources added.
He is presently posted in a police wing where his job is to gather information only. |
