235 Addl SPs promoted as SP
Staff Reporter :
The government on Thursday promoted 235 Additional Superintendents of Bangladesh Police (ASP) to Superintendent of Police (SP) posts.
Among the 235, a total of 230 ASPs were given promotion to supernumerary Grade V posts. Five others were given regular promotion, according to government circulars.
The government gave promotions just before the upcoming national elections, which will be held on 23 December.
When there are no vacant posts in the Department’s top tiers,
the Police Headquarters come up with an in-situ solution, the British-era formula for promotion in the administration cadre.
An in-situ official is someone who continues to hold the same office and perform the same duties even after being elevated to a higher position.
The Police Headquarters sent a proposal to the Home Ministry on July 4, stating that “competent officials” have been functioning in the same positions for a long time, as suitable posts were not present at the upper level of police presently. In the proposal, the headquarters used the words “supernumerary promotion” instead of in-situ promotions, which are given to admin cadre officials to ease commotion among officials serving without promotion for long.
