The Supreme Court has given its seal on treating CAPFs as organised services for all purposes, recommending progressively reducing the number of IPS officers deputed to the forces.
West Bengal, Haryana, Telangana and Uttar Pradesh have lowest CDR utilisation while non-BJP led Jharkhand, Tamil Nadu, Kerala top the list with higher than required percentages.
The political trajectory is clear. Asim Munir is now prepared to convict and sentence Imran Khan for instigating a rebellion against the army chief, with no possibility of mercy.
RBI data shows 26 states and Union Territories couldn’t regain pre-pandemic foreign tourist footfalls in 2024, but domestic tourism surged 27 percent compared to 2019.
Of the total package, $649 million will be utilised for additional hardware, software, and support services, and the remaining for Major Defence Equipment (MDE).
None of Pakistan’s PMs has lasted 5 years. That the current PM has given Asim Munir 5 years shows that of all military dictatorships history has seen, Pakistan’s is most creative.
This is a step in the right direction.
Not just the CAPFs, but all the central agencies need a systemic rehaul to get rid of the cancer that is the deputation policy. By turning specialized agencies into revolving doors, national security interests are being sacrificed at the altar of the career interests of a few. In general, the IPS provides an exceptionally talented and agile pool of officers that is unmatched. However, they need to be absorbed into the organisations at mid-junior levels, make their way up and eventually retire from the same organisation after spending 15-20 years atleast (e.g., hard-core/permanently seconded officers in the IB/R&AW)
It is not jolt to IPS but it was unfair to the CAPF officers.These forces are not meant for deputations but have core functions which are integral to national security.
