12 cops force retired in Jalandhar over bad track record

In a move aimed at cleansing of the force, the Jalandhar commissionerate on Monday compulsorily retired 12 police personnel for a bad track record.

According to the information, five are assistant sub-inspectors, six head constables and a constable.

Police commissioner Gurpreet Singh Bhullar said service records of all personnel are being scanned. “The aim is to weed out the bad elements from the force. Similar action is expected against more personnel in the near future,” he said.
