SRINAGAR: The State Administrative Council (SAC) has approved creation of 31 posts of accounts officers in the Police Department.
SAC approved creation of 6 posts of accounts officers by corresponding reduction of 6 posts of assistant accounts officers in the offices of ADGP Armed, J&K, ADGP Security, ADGP CID, J&K, IGP
Crime, J&K, IGP Telecom, J&K and SSP Srinagar, an official statement here said.
SAC approved creation of 25 posts of Accounts Officers in the SSP offices of all 22 districts in Jammu, Kashmir and Ladakh Divisions besides the Directorate of Forensic Science Laboratory, SP
Awantipora, SP Handwara and SP Sopore.
The creation of posts of Accounts Officers and providing each district establishment with an Accounts Officer will ensure budget control, better management of funds and enforcement of financial
discipline. This will also relieve the Police officers from additional duties of DDOs and enable them to devote their full time to their primary assigned duties.
