Home Minister A. Namassivayam on Sunday said a proposal was being considered to grant weekly off for police personnel in the Union Territory, along the lines of a similar decision by Tamil Nadu. Addressing the media after handing over an ex gratia of ₹1 lakh each to the kin of three Puducherry journalists who succumbed to COVID-19, he said a decision on the matter would be taken after a discussion with Chief Minister N. Rangasamy. Recently, the Director General of Police in Tamil Nadu issued a circular stipulating that personnel be given a day off every week compulsorily to help them maintain their health and enable them to spend quality time with their families.
