In a good move for JKPS officers, Jammu and Kashmir government has started the process for induction of 43 officers into IPS. J&K, UPSC and MHA top brass will be part of the high-level Committee which will meet in Srinagar later this month on July 29 to finalize induction of JKPS officers into IPS. This induction is going to take place after 10 years.
It is being said that the Committee might not approve induction of 43 officers in one go but will do it on step basis. Sources pointed that While 28 JKPS officers are likely to be inducted in the first phase, 15 could get IPS rank afterwards out of the 43 available posts. It means that more than 50 percent Officers are likely to be inducted soon and rest to be inducted next year into IPS.
