IPS officer Assosiation condemns Minister's statement

Shimla, Jan 14 (UNI) The Indian Police Services Association, Himachal Pradesh (IPS Association–HP), has passed a strongly worded resolution expressing serious concern over recent public remarks made by Public Works Minister Vikramaditya Singh, stating that such comments have the potential to create an undesirable divide within the police and administrative establishment of the state.
The resolution, adopted unanimously at a meeting of the Association, records its anguish over statements that allegedly draw distinctions between Himachali and non-Himachali officers serving in the state. The Association maintained that such narratives are factually incorrect and risk undermining the morale, cohesion and professional integrity of the police force.
Emphasising the constitutional character of the All India Services, the IPS Association stated that officers, irrespective of their cadre origin or place of birth, serve the people of Himachal Pradesh with equal commitment, integrity and devotion. It cautioned that questioning the intent or legitimacy of officers on the basis of regional identity is demoralising, divisive and detrimental to the harmonious functioning of the administration.
