Raipur : Due to the efforts of Deputy Chief Minister Shri Vijay Sharma, the process of promoting the inspectors of 1999 and 2000 batch of Inspector cadre working under the Police Department to the post of Deputy Superintendent of Police (DSP) has started. This decision is the result of the strong will, sensitive leadership and quick administrative initiative of Deputy Chief Minister and Home Minister Shri Vijay Sharma.

It is noteworthy that these officers of the Inspector cadre had been demanding DSP promotion for a long time. This process was stuck due to only 17 vacant posts in the department. In such a situation, a delegation of officers met Deputy Chief Minister Shri Vijay Sharma and presented their problem to him. Listening to the officers with sensitivity, the Deputy Chief Minister not only assured them of early promotion, but also issued necessary instructions with immediate effect to speed up the entire process.

The obstacle to promotion was mainly due to the limited number of vacant posts. In view of this, Shri Vijay Sharma decided to increase the number of DSP posts in the interest of the police department and a proposal was prepared for this and sent to the Finance Department. As soon as the approval was received from the Finance Department, the promotion process was started, which is nearing completion.

Under this decision, a total of 55 inspectors have now been promoted to the post of DSP. Apart from this, 1 officer from the Reserve Inspector cadre, 1 Inspector from Special Branch (SB), 1 Inspector from Arms Branch and 7 officers working on the post of Company Commander have been promoted to the post of Sahayak Senani. Thus, a total of 65 officers have been promoted to higher posts on the basis of their eligibility and seniority.

Deputy Chief Minister Shri Vijay Sharma said that this decision is not just an administrative process, but it is a symbol of respect for the dedication, discipline and years of service of those officers. He said that the good governance government of Chief Minister Shri Vishnu Dev Sai is committed to ensure timely promotion and transparent system in all departments, so that the morale of the employees remains high and the level of service keeps improving gradually.

This promotion is not only an achievement in the personal life of the concerned officers, but it will also strengthen the law and order of the state and the efficiency of the police administration. Mr. Sharma expressed hope that the promoted officers will discharge their new responsibilities with full loyalty, alertness and devotion.
