The outgoing
Punjab DGP Suresh Arora (IPS:1982:PB) was, on Wednesday, given 12 months
extension beginning September 30 i.e. his superannuation. It may be underlined
that Arora was given three-month extension last year till December 31 as he
retired on September 30 and then got one-month extension by the Apex Court as
the case was in the court. He has been serving as state DGP since 2015. The NaMo
administration issued the order on a day when the SC rejected pleas made by
five states, including Punjab, seeking modification of its earlier order on the
appointment of state DGPs. The apex court had in July 2018 outlined the
procedures for the appointment of regular DGPs in states.
