For the first time in 38 years as a police officer, sub-inspector Uma Shankar Mishra got a weekly off on Thursday and spent some quality time with his family.

For hundreds of police personnel in Madhya Pradesh, it was their first compulsory weekly off — a manifesto promise that the Congress government implemented within three weeks of taking over.

Thus far, duty was seven days a week, all year round for MP cops. They could avail of casual leaves and earned leaves, but no weekly off. The government rolled out the poll promise on Thursday, two days after its notification on New Year’s Day.Click Here: Atlanta United FC Jersey
