Cuttack: Former Odisha DGP and ex-Director of Biju Patnaik State Police Academy Arun Kumar Sarangi who took voluntary retirement from the IPS, assumed charge as the Chairperson of Odisha Public Service Commission on Tuesday.

Sarangi was appointed as the new OPSC chairperson by Odisha government in September.

Speaking on the occasion, Sarangi said that he will prioritise transparency in conduct of examinations and accurate evaluation. “I will miss the uniform a lot,” the 1990-batch IPS officer said.

Sarangi will remain in charge of the chairman’s post in the OPSC for six years from the date on which he enters office or until he attains the age of 62 years, whichever is earlier, a GA&PG department notice issued last month stated.
