Jharkhand Police Faces Staff Shortage: DG and ADG Posts Vacant, Major Transfers Loom

Jharkhand Police Faces Staff Shortage DG and ADG P

Jharkhand’s police force is facing a shortage of senior officers after several recent retirements. Three Director General (DG)-rank officers, the highest positions in the police department, have left in the last month. This has created significant leadership gaps that need to be addressed quickly.

In addition to the DG vacancies, several Additional Director General (ADG)-rank positions are also currently open. Moreover, a senior officer, MS Bhatia, who recently returned from a special assignment, is waiting to be assigned to a new role. These unfilled positions are causing strain on the existing police force.

Because of these vacancies, a large-scale transfer and posting of officers is expected soon. This reshuffle will help redistribute responsibilities and fill the open positions. The goal is to ensure that the police department can continue to operate effectively and maintain law and order throughout the state.

Jharkhand has a total of 141 officers, ranging from DG to Superintendent of Police (SP). However, the high number of senior-level vacancies is putting pressure on the remaining staff. The state government is expected to act quickly to fill these important positions.

Filling these roles will help ease the burden on current officers and improve the overall efficiency of the police force. A fully staffed police department is crucial for maintaining safety and security in Jharkhand. The upcoming reshuffle aims to resolve these issues and ensure the smooth operation of law enforcement.
