To ease work pressure, Delhi Police personnel to get weekly offs

Following complaints of work pressure from personnel, the Delhi Police have decided to give one day off a week to its officers. Sources said the leaves will be fixed based on a roster system. A circular issued recently by the police headquarters stated that the decision was taken in view of the "health hazards" and the impact of "untimely and long duty hours, and severe work pressure" on police personnel. However, the circular also stated that offs could be "preponed or postponed" in interest of government work.
