Jammu: The Director General of Police, Dilbag Singh, chaired the ‘Police Establishment Board’ meeting at Police Headquarters here today.
During the meeting, the role of personnel and SPOs on various fronts across the UT was discussed threadbare and accordingly decisions with regard to their conversion and out-of-turn promotions were taken. Though some cases were decided to be reviewed by the concerned for re-examination.
During the meeting, a number of cases were discussed for out-of-turn promotions/conversion & medals in different ranks. Most of the personnel recommended for out-of-turn promotions/conversion & medals were approved. All these personnel have worked exceptionally well on the operational front in different districts of UT. Besides out of turn promotions for personnel who represent JKP in different sports categories were also discussed.
During the discussion, the DGP directed the officers to look personally into the citations and recommendations for medals, out-of-turn promotions, and conversion so that deserving personnel are duly rewarded as per their role and contribution. He said that the recommendations must be performance-based and due weightage must be given to the circumstances, topography, and difficulty faced by the personnel must be taken as the touchstone for recommendations. He further stated that only those personnel should be rewarded who contributed to the professional work.
The participating officers submitted a number of suggestions which were discussed and DGP directed for following them on merit and as quickly as possible.
