If the RRs are amended, then the lateral deputation of IPS officers in the CAPFs would end eventually. All the forces are currently headed by IPS officers.
2-month training is being imparted to the officers at Lal Bahadur Shastri National Academy of Administration in Mussoorie and HRD institute in Hyderabad.
At ThePrint's Democracy Wall event in Hyderabad, Rema Rajeshwari stressed the need for states to provide affirmative action to encourage women to join IPS.
Confusion stems from a February 2019 ruling, in which SC said the 'grant of status of Group 'A' Central Services to RPF shall not affect (the deputation of) the IPS'.
A BSF officer, last month, filed a contempt plea in the SC, stating the government is not complying with the apex court order, granting better pay benefits to CAPF.
Recommendations appear in Niti Aayog’s Tax Policy Working Paper Series–II. It says there is a need to shift away from fear-based enforcement to trust-based governance.
In service with the British military since 2019, it is also known as the Martlet missile. Ukrainians have also deployed these missiles against Russian troops.
Education, reservations, govt jobs are meant to bring equality and dignity. That we are a long way from that is evident in the shoe thrown at the CJI and the suicide of Haryana IPS officer. The film Homebound has a lesson too.
The writer is right about one thing. The list of lynchings is incomplete. Here are a few more examples –
1. 31st July 2015 – the famous Azam Khan constituency (15-year-old boy dies in Rampur communal clashes)
A cattle from “majority community” entered into field of a “minority community”. A scuffle followed following which two members of “majority community” Jitendra and Raju Singh sustained severe injuries. Later in the evening it was announced from mosque to teach lesson to “majority community” following which there was a mass gathering and firing on a religious site leading to killing of 15 year old “Sanju Rathore”. Many villagers have left the village fearing more violence.

A bus driver Ramesh was honking for way at junction which angered Qaisar and Vakeel, who beat Ramesh to death. On opposition, there was tension between the two communities.
Going a way back –
1. 1265 AD – Almost all the Rajputs of Mewat were completely exterminated by Delhi Sultan Ghiyas ud din Balban during the massacre.
2. 1323 AD – 12,000 Hindu ascetics at or around the temple were slaughtered by Muhammad bin Tughluq’s soldiers while they city was sacked.
3. !353 AD approx – Firuz Shah invaded Bengal after it rebelled and paid for the 180,000 heads of Hindus massacred by his soldiers.
4. 1366 AD approx – 500,000 inhabitants were massacred in all the districts surrounding Vijayanagara by the Bahmani Sultanate soldiers. In Raichur Doab alone, 70,000 Hindus were massacred by the army of the Bahmani Sultanate in response to killing of the garrison of Mudgal. I could go on, but coming to independent India:
1. 1966 (anti cow slaughter agitation) – Hindu Sadhus and protestors killed by government
2. 1984 (anti sikh riots) – 2,800 to 8,000 Sikhs all over India. Series of pogroms by Congress supporters after Assassination of Indira Gandhi.
3. Related to 1984 riots – 32 Sikhs killed. Rioting by Indian National Congress Party members after Assassination of Indira Gandhi.
4. 1990 Kashmiri Hindu killings – Officially 219 Hindus; though estimates as high as 1,341 have been reported.
5. Ayodhya police firing – Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Mulayam Singh Yadav ordered the police to open fire on kar sevaks who reached Ayodhya. The dead bodies were allegedly thrown in Saryu river.
6. 1998 Wandhama massacre. 23 Kashmiri Pandits killed
7. 1998 Prankote massacre 17 April 1998 Jammu and Kashmir 26 Hindus killed
8. 1998 Chapnari massacre (19 June 1998) Chapnari, Jammu and Kashmir 25 Hindus killed. Allegedly perpetrated by Pakistani-backed insurgents.
9. 1998 Chamba massacre – 35 Hindus killed. Attack by Islamic militant group
10. 2000 Amarnath pilgrimage massacre 1 August 2000 Jammu and Kashmir 30 (Hindu pilgrims) killed. Attack by Muslim militants
11. 2001 Kishtwar massacre 3 August 2001 Jammu and Kashmir 19 Hindus killed Attack by Muslim militants
There are hundreds of such examples. These are onle a few.
You call the likes of KPS Gill moral and professional? Lmao he has killed millions under the pretext of catching terrorist… embazzeled money from people threatening to kill their kids labelled as terrorist…your article is as rubbish and political as the views you use to denounce IPS officers.
India when it was friends with the erstwhile soviet union was unlike the ussr in that we did not have a kgb , but now we have a kgb cum stasi cum whatever , all state organizations have been melded together to make for huge ISI.
Old adages have survived because they give timeless wisdom. One such says, IT IS DARKEST BEFORE THE DAWN. Just as things seem absolutely hopeless today, just as one or two people have started believing that they are mighty like god, we can be 100% sure that the Real God is about to pull the rug from under their feet. (Actually I should have said THREE people… No I don’t mean Shekhar Gupta’s dear friend Ajit Doval… I mean a full General by the name Bipin Rawat, who is possessed by the ghost of another full General, who went by the name General Sunderji.)
Kudos to you sir
You bring the most heinous nexus of today’s era before the public in black and white with detailed and concrete facts.
The IPS has become the most defunct structure of policing . They do nothing and enjoy everything . They are really a shame fir society in uniform .
This is a great article and hits the nail on the head that India has for at least the last 50 odd years never been a place with law order. Not only the IPS but the IAS as well are completely rotten and the only reason Indians celebrate and worship these services is the power, impunity and ROI it provides. Frankly the citizens deserve these corrupt and incompetent cops and civil servants as we are used to living in servility.
Now the time has come to take concrete step to tackle this nexus between ips officers and their political masters for the safe guard of our national unity and integrity.political leaders use these officers as a tool to eliminate their rivals as well as consolidate themselves in power and in return these officers get praise postings and lucrative post retirement settlement.This trend is very dangerous for our democracy.
Fully agreed Madmax…Mr Gupta is not only silly but also a sanghi. He says alleged fake encounters if it is fake how will a person die. This shows that sanghis like Gupta don’t have logic. Also he says in 2g millions were changed to billions. He doesn’t even know that his master sanghis used to say crores.
C should also be added- IPCS- Indian political corruption service. Some are rowdies in uniform.
In the states, the CM is king, all the more if his high command is not in Delhi. The IAS too has mellowed, one cannot visualise a chief secretary taking a principled stand contrary to what the CM desires. Even in a rare instance of standing by a wronged junior colleague. There are lots of unimportant posts to which upright mandarins can be despatched. However, as the column notes, the process has advanced much further with the cops. Possibly because they deal with the raw, coercive power of the state in a manner that the average IAS officer does not. 2. Not an unfair question to ask, To what extent is this hollowing out the capacity of the Indian state / states to deal with challenges like terrorism or organised crime. Even simple things like keeping ordinary citizens safe.
Sekhar Gupta writes well for his living. He does not understand economics, do not bother if he criticises.

Why is Doval in your list?

You didn’t include Mamata Banerjee’s police in this list. Shame on you.
Very well written and matter of concern for the nation.

Either you are a sanghi or you are sarcastic.
You got to be silly if you feel those were “alleged fake” encounters mr gupta.
