With a view to minimize inconvenience to citizens, Nagaland Police will begin accepting on-line applications for jobs of various categories under the department, soon.
According to a post shared by the Nagaland Director General of Police, Rubin Sharma which is being circulated in various social media platform, the police department is in the process of developing a prototype form which citizens can use and access with a mobile phone with an internet connection to submit application.
DGP Sharma said he and senior officers at the Police Headquarters keep receiving large number of visitors every day, most of them “job seekers” for various posts in the police department. With the department having excess strength of employees, 27,000 to be exact, the DGP said there are not too many vacancies to be filled up.
The DGP also express pain that ordinary citizens have been travelling from far and wide, from all parts of Nagaland to seek jobs. “Most are ignorant about the Government procedures and limitations and expect that we would be able to sign off appointment letters if they meet us or get a signature. This is truly not the case,” Sharma pointed out.
While job-seekers would be disappointed at not getting the jobs, on their part, Sharma said the police department felt guilty that ignorant citizens have to travel to Kohima to meet them and in the process spending hard-earned money or at times money which they may have loaned from relatives or friends, further increasing their troubles.
The DGP calculated that on an average, person travelling from an interior district end up spending Rs 3000-5000 for a single journey of 3-4 days to Kohima.
Therefore to minimise the inconvenience, the Police department will start accepting on-line applications for jobs of various categories, the DGP stated. He also shared the sample form for public feedback with the following links: for guidelines: https://www.nagapol.in/job/guideline, for job application https://www.nagapol.in/job/application.
The Nagaland police department expects to launch the on-line job application option by end of June 2018.
