As per a release, addressing about a hundred family members of late and serving SPOs, who had called on him today Ding said that if elected as MLA, he would raise the issue in the assembly for regularizing the services of SPOs, making them regular cops, with salaries and allowances equal to those paid to the police cops, with the provision for their promotion. He rued that at present a paltry sum of Rs 3000 per month is being paid to the SPOs, who work for 24 hours and risk their lives while rendering their duty particularly in the militancy infested areas or on duty with the VIPs and other political leaders, who are on the hit list of militants. He said that a fairly good number of SPOs are killed in the militancy related violence, but no family pension is granted to their dependents.
