Lucknow. The Yogi Adityanath government in Uttar Pradesh has given major financial relief to police personnel who became sub-inspectors (darogas) after serving as constables. The government has decided to waive recovery of up to about ₹8 lakh linked to training and salary from selected sub-inspectors of the 2025 batch who were earlier serving as constables.
Several personnel serving as constables in the Uttar Pradesh Police had cleared the sub-inspector recruitment examination. After their selection to the post of daroga, they were being asked to return the amount spent on their previous training and salary. A demand for recovery of about ₹7.34 lakh per candidate had emerged, which was reaching up to nearly ₹8 lakh in total.
The affected personnel argued that they were not leaving the police department for another department, but were taking charge of a higher post within the same department. In such a situation, they said, recovering the training amount from them was not justified. They had sought Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath’s intervention and relief.
According to reports, around 1,700 police personnel are expected to benefit from the decision. They will now not have to face the financial pressure of returning the amount spent on their previous training before taking charge as darogas.
