32 J&K Police officers to get IPS cadre in near future

Around 32 Jammu and Kashmir state Police officers are likely to be promoted to IPS cadre in near future. According to the sources, all related major hurdles have been cleared by the Union Ministry of Home Affairs and the state Police Department and all queries by UPSC have been replied satisfactorily. Reportedly UPSC will conduct a meeting in which the names of the officers will be cleared. The UPSC has sounded the J&K Government that the meeting could be arranged soon. If everything goes well in the meeting, this will be for the first time when 32 JKPS officers will get IPS in one go. The promotion in IPS cadre will definitely help Government to overcome shortage of Police officers in the Union Territory.
