My observer is not logging out the user when password is changed

Question

1) I registered my extension at app/etc/modules/Bmg_Golo.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<config>
    <modules>
        <Bmg_Golo>local</Bmg_Golo>
        <active>true</active>
    </modules>
</config>

2) My config.xml is at app/code/local/Bmg/Golo/etc/config.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<config>
    <modules>
        <Bmg_Golo>
            <version>0.0.1</version>
        </Bmg_Golo>
    </modules>
    <global>
        <models>
            <Bmg_Golo>
                <class>Bmg_Golo_Model</class>
            </Bmg_Golo>
        </models>
    </global>
    <frontend>
        <events>
            <controller_action_postdispatch_customer_account_resetpasswordpost> 
                <observers>
                    <Bmg_Golo>
                        <class>Bmg_Golo/observer</class>
                        <method>logout</method>
                    </Bmg_Golo>
                </observers>
            </controller_action_postdispatch_customer_account_resetpasswordpost>
        </events>
    </frontend>
</config>

3) I created an observer at app/code/local/Bmg/Golo/module/Observer.php

<?php
/**
* 
*/
class Bmg_Golo_Model_Observer
{
    public function logout($observer) {
        $session = Mage::getSingleton('customer/session');
            if ($session->isLoggedIn()) {
                Mage::getSingleton('customer/session')->logout();
            }
    }

}
?>

Now when i log in as customer and change password. Its not logging out

More appropriate solution would be to observe predispatch event on controller rather than allow to login only to logout right after. It makes no sense at all. — Bartosz Herba, Nov 14 '17 at 18:29
I am new to magento It will be great if you tell me in detail — Abhilash Narayan, Nov 14 '17 at 18:46
Have you not just tried to clear the session completely e.g. Mage::getSingleton('core/session')->clear(); which should kill off all sessions include customer and they will need to login again — Dava Gordon, Nov 14 '17 at 21:45

Please check that your code in app/etc/modules/Bmg_Golo.xml file is not correct.

It should be like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<config>
  <modules>
    <[Package]_[Module]>
      <active>true</active>
      <codePool>local</codePool>
    </[Package]_[Module]>
  </modules>
</config>

Apart from that rest of the code is looking fine.

Please let me know if it worked.
