Cops salaries to go up next month, says IGP
Inspector General of Police (IGP) Nasir Khan Durrani has said establishment of Counter Terrorism Force (CTF) is on the cards, which would have the powers to collect intelligence gathering and arrest and investigate suspects.
Talking to reporters during a visit to Lakki Marwat police station on Wednesday, Durrani said the provincial government had sanctioned a summary to bring salaries of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa police on a par with those in the Punjab police.
He added the personnel of Bomb Disposal Unit would get an additional allowance of Rs5,000 each month. “Payment of increased salaries to the cops will start from the next month,” he added.
“The increase in salaries and provision of other perks and privileges will certainly improve the performance and capabilities of cops,” he maintained.The IGP said a training school would be set up at the new police lines in Lakki Marwat so as to impart training to the new recruits of Dera Ismail Khan, Tank and Bannu and Lakki districts.
“For fresh induction in the police force, screening tests will be conducted through Education Testing and Evaluation Agency (ETEA) and National Testing Service (NTS) so as to ensure implementation of merit in letter and spirit,” he maintained.
He asked the cops to appear in tests/examinations held under ETEA and Public Service Commission to get promotion to higher ranks.Earlier, Durrani visited Police Lines where he was presented a salute by an alert contingent of cops.
He met cops and appreciated their gallantry in fight against terrorism. He also inspected the training being imparted to the cops on use of heavy weapons.
Certificate distributed: Bannu Station Commander Brig Imran Munawar distributed course completion certificates among the females of blast-hit Shah Hassankhel village at a ceremony arranged by Pak army at the District Headquarters Complex at Tajazai.
