UP's IPS officer Amrendra appointed as Rajnath Singh's OSD

Senior police officer Amrendra Kumar Sengar was today appointed as Officer on Special Duty (OSD) to Home minister Rajnath Singh.

Sengar, a 1995 batch IPS officer of Uttar Pradesh cadre, has been appointed to the post for a period of five years or on co-terminus basis with the home minister's tenure, an order issued by the Department of Personnel and Training (DoPT) said.

The officer has, however, taken over as the OSD over two months back, a senior government official said.
