Nagaland police denies illegal recruitment
Dimapur : In the face of a demand to cancel appointments alleged to have made through unfair means, the Nagaland Police department has maintained that none of the constables recruited were “backdoor appointments”.
In a press release issued on Saturday, the director general of police, Nagaland stated that appointments made by respective unit commanders were in accordance with the established rules, notifications and standing guidelines of the government.
“It is thus wished to inform the public at large that any attempt by any unions/associations or individual to delay or stop the training of the newly appointed constables will adversely impact the functioning of the department in particular and the law and order in general. The training institutes, namely NAPTC and PTS, located at Police Complex Chümoukedima, are professional centres of excellence and have been conducting training of the recruit constables for the last many years catering to the need of the state at large,” read the statement.
It stated that vacancies in the department cannot be kept for long as the police primarily deals with law and order duties. “As such, the P&AR office memorandum No. AR-3/Gen147/2007 (Pt) Dated December 7, 2016, while setting out the procedure for filling up Grade-III and IV posts in government departments, has exempted the Police department from the purview of this memorandum.
