The Deputy Inspector General (DIG) law and order, Nilesh Anand Bharne said that police headquarters has set a committee headed by Additional Director General (ADG) of police (Administration) Abhinav Kumar on the grade pay issue. The Inspector General (IG) intelligence and security, Sanjay Gunjyal and IG personnel, Pushpak Jyoti are the members of the committee. The committee would hold talks with the Jawans and present their case effectively before the state administration.
The resentment is simmering in the ranks of the Uttarakhand police on the issue of grade pay. Under the new plan a Grade pay of Rs 1800 would be given to Sepoy on completion of 20 years of service. Earlier a grade pay of Rs 4600 was given to Sepoy on completion of 20 years of service.
