The promotion ban was lifted by the court.
The court removed the suspension on promotions on November 7. In relation to this order, the advocate for the state government told the court that eligible officers were being retired without promotions, which was causing them to become unhappy. leading to growing discontent among officials.
The court lifted the stay on promotions after learning about the circumstances, on the understanding that the promotions would be affected by the court’s final ruling in the matter. Promotions that will happen beyond 2019 There haven’t been any inspector to DSP rank promotions since 2019. The main cause of this is the 2020 coronavirus outbreak, which forced the state government to put a stop to all promotions.
The process started the year before, in 2022, as soon as the state government approved the promotions. The state government recommended to the JPSC in October 2022 that 36 DSP positions be promoted. Later on, this recommendation was changed, and in March 2023, a revised list was presented with suggestions for promotions to 93 positions. For these 93 DSP positions, a list of 186 police inspectors has been submitted.
