Lahore:Inspector General of Police Punjab, Dr. Usman Anwar, met with inspectors from Lahore and various other districts at the Central Police Office. During the meeting, the inspectors apprised the IG Punjab of the challenges they face concerning promotions. IG Punjab Dr. Usman Anwar assured the inspectors that their legitimate concerns regarding promotions would be resolved on a priority basis.

He added that digital technology is being employed to ensure transparency in recruitment, promotions, and postings. This has enhanced the trust of the force in the transparency-driven service and promotion structure, as well as the Human Resource Management and e-FOAS system.
