Bhubaneswar: Senior IPS officer Bijay Kumar Sharma has been appointed as the DGP in-charge today a day after incumbent DG RP Sharma has been named a new Lokayukta member.
RP Sharma has already sought voluntary retirement from service to be member of Odisha Lokayukta.
Odisha Governor Prof Ganeshi Lal has approved Sharma’s name following the recommendation of Lokayukta selection committee for the five-member Lokayukta panel to be headed by former Chief Justice of Guwahati High Court Ajit Singh.
