Police personnel in the city will soon be able to get a day off from their week-long job, senior police officials said.
However, on the weekly off day, they will not be able to leave the city without prior intimation to authorities, so that they could be pressed into service in cases of emergency.
The announcement for giving out weekly off had been made a month back but it could not be implemented because of the Lok Sabha elections. The plan will now come into effect from May 20, SSP Kanpur Ajay Mishra said.
