The suspension order, effective from the afternoon of February 10, mandates that the suspended constables report daily to Police Lines, Huplong in Dharmanagar for roll call. They are also prohibited from leaving headquarters without prior approval from the SP.
The disciplinary action, initiated under Sub-rule (1) of Rule 10 of the CCS (CCA) Rules, 1965, aims to uphold the integrity and discipline of the police force. While the specific nature of the misconduct has not been disclosed, the suspension order emphasizes that further proceedings are under consideration. During their suspension, the officers will receive subsistence allowance as per service regulations.
The internal investigation is expected to provide more clarity on the allegations and determine further action. The North District Police Administration has reiterated its commitment to enforcing discipline within the force.
