Srinagar 30 July (KNB): For the first time in a decade, several Jammu and Kashmir Police Service (JKPS) officers from 1999-batch have been sort out for their induction into Indian Police Service (IPS).
Yesterday, a selection committee meeting headed by UPSC member Dr T C A Anat was held, which was attended by representatives of Union Home Ministry, Cheif Secretary Arun Kumar Mehta, Director General of Police Dilbagh Singh and Principal Secretary Home Shaleen Kabra.
As per reliable sources, the panel has given a green to around 12 JKPS officers for the induction into IPS.
The panel has selected officers, Shakti Kumar Pathak, Dr. Muhammad Haseeb Mughal, Sheikh Junaid Mehmood, Shahid Mehraj Rather, Dr. Ajeet Singh, Altaf Ahmed Khan, Haseeb-Ur-Rehman, Vikas Gupta, Abdul Qayoom, Nisha Nathyal, Maqsood-ul-Zaman and Javid Iqbal Matoo for their induction into IPS.
