Many IPS officers among the 35 who were fined for overstaying in government accommodations have got waivers after getting approval from the Maharashtra government. This includes mostly officers of higher posts such as former Mumbai Police Commissioner Sanjay Barve, former Director General (Legal and Technical) S P Yadav, former Director-General, State Security Corporation D Kanakratnam, and former Police Commissioner of Pune, Gulabrao Pol.

However, as per The Indian Express, the government has rejected the appeal of several low-rank officers who had appealed to the government to waive their penal rents. It is learnt that eight other IPS officer had applied for waivers.

Penal rent is fine levied on police officers who stay on in government quarters even after their tenure on the post has ended. An officer can appeal to the Maharashtra Home Department and the local Commissioner’s office for a waiver.

The Indian Express had earlier filed an application under the RTI to get details of officers who have been overstaying in government accommodation even after being transferred from that particular position. The details were procured for the past 10 years in which 35 IPS officers were included in the list.
