Over 1500 Arunachal constables promoted
ITANAGAR: The Arunachal Pradesh government has promoted over 1535 constables of state police to the post of head constable rank.
Chief minister Pema Khandu, during a function organised on Friday evening, said the police personnel in the rank of constable of civil police, Arunachal Police Battalion and India Reserve Battalion under the state police have been facing stagnation without promotions.

"Police personnel recruited in the rank had to retire in the same rank even after putting in more than 20 to 30 years of continuous service. This situation had adversely affected the workforce," Khandu said.
The chief minister said sensing the necessity and to boost the morale of the police force, the state government had passed a resolution in the assembly to promote constables who have completed 20 years of service or more more to head constable on honorary rank.
"I believe this step of the government will prove to be a watershed moment in the history of Arunachal Pradesh as it will radically motivate in creating job satisfaction," added the chief minister.
The function was attended by deputy chief minister Chowna Mein, home minister Kumar Waii, state BJP President Tapir Gao, chief secretary Satya Gopal, DGP S B K Singh and other dignitaries, an official release informed here on Saturday.
