A recent decision by the Government of India has affirmed the allocation of a Deputy Jailor, Shri Shailendra Pratap Singh, to Uttarakhand. This decision follows a thorough review of his representation, which was prompted by a High Court order from December 12, 2007. A dedicated committee, after careful deliberation on June 23, 2009, concluded that his initial assignment to Uttarakhand was consistent with the established reorganization guidelines. The personal reasons cited for his appeal, including concerns for ailing parents, domicile preferences, and health issues related to cold for himself and his spouse, were found not to fall within the purview of the state reorganization policy. As a result, his request for a change was denied, and the government has upheld the committee’s recommendation, ensuring his continued service in Uttarakhand. This final resolution is now being communicated to all relevant officials.
