In a significant move, a senior Indian Police Service (IPS) officer, Ms. Soorya Thankappan from the 2001 batch, has been approved for an inter-cadre deputation. Originating from the Odisha cadre, Ms. Thankappan will now serve in the Kerala cadre for a period of three years. This decision, sanctioned by the Appointments Committee of the Cabinet, includes a special provision: the mandatory cooling-off period, typically required, has been relaxed until December 31, 2019, to accommodate the officer’s personal hardship. This inter-state transfer highlights the government’s flexibility in managing administrative assignments while considering individual circumstances.
