Another group of 50 ASOs deployed to BMC

Deployment (to BMC) period of first batch comprising 50 ASOs and 15 DEOs is going to be completed on 19.09.2020. But in view of the current situation of COVID cases in Bhubaneswar, BMC had requested Home Department for continuation of the existing group for another one month or to depute another batch to work with BMC till 20.10.2020.
In response to this request, Home Department has deployed a new group of 50 ASOs with order for continuation of 15 DEOs (deployed earlier) till 20.10.2020.

It's to mention here that there was displeasure among OSS officers for this deployment. Also five out of the 50 ASOs were detected Covid Positive during their deployment period. And in this regard several correspondences have been made with Chief Secretary, Honble Home Minister with request to provide protection measures while these Officers are being exposed in community. Also proper care should be taken for their treatment if anyone falls ill or finds himself covid positive. 

Let's hope for no issues this time.
