Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh): The Departmental Promotion Committee (DPC) met on Friday in New Delhi to consider promotion of five State Police Service (SPS) officers to the Indian Police Service (IPS). Discussions were held on 15 officers, with Chief Secretary Anurag Jain, DGP Kailash Makwana and ACS Home Sheo Shekhar Shukla participating in the meeting.

The five officers likely to be promoted are Vikrant Murao, Rajesh Raghuwanshi, Surendra Kumar Jain, Ashish Khare and Nimisha Pandey. The cases of Amritlal Meena and Sitaram Sasatya have been put on hold.

The earlier DPC, scheduled on September 12, was cancelled for the first time in the state after a dispute arose over an officer’s record. Following this, the UPSC directed Home Department to cancel the previous DPC and conduct a fresh one.
