In the post, Mishra wrote, “After Acceptance of my Resignation by State Govt. and expecting the final Notification in few days, today, 20-01-2024, I have handed over the Charge of the office of the SUPERINTENDENT OF POLICE, Lakhimpur, Assam and proceeding to Guwahati before leaving for Bihar.”
“I am returning with an immense sense of thankfulness and gratitude towards the people of Lakhimpur and Assam, my Colleagues, Seniors and Well-wishers, individually and collectively. I shall fondly remember and cherish this association for life with much pride and satisfaction. I have resigned from my dream Job, not from Service! We shall keep meeting,” the post added.
