@TheEdgeNewsIN Youngsters are just not understanding the base and essence of polity. We don't vote for a contender, we vote for an ideology. Changing parties is the biggest "vishwasghat" a politician does to the voters. Let it be from any party to any party.
@Strat_31360@Hardisohi Sir a similar situation persists in CAPFs and they have been fighting a legal battle now for 16 years. Even the top posts in CAPFs are reserved for deputation. Clearing UPSC CPF at age 20 and retiring as DIG without NFFU.
@satbirsm Sir, para military (CAPF) are fighting in Courts since 2012 for right implementation of NFFU. CAPFs have won twice in Supreme court and are still waiting for their dues. Officers have not got their first promotion in 16 years. No CSD, No PMSP, No Ex-servicemen quota.
Dear Anand,
Your appreciation of the issue, I say this with due respect, does not appear to be grounded in the full factual and legal context. Diverting the core concern towards a debate on so-called “IPS hegemony” in the Central Armed Police Forces (CAPFs) does not address the real question at hand.
Let me clarify at the outset: there is no contest between services. We hold the Indian Police Service, and every other service, in equal regard. Each was created with a defined mandate to serve the people of this country. The present issue is not about inter-service comparison, but about adherence to established service jurisprudence and principles of fairness within the framework of Organized Group ‘A’ Services (OGAS).
The CAPFs—such as Central Reserve Police Force, Border Security Force, and others—have been recognized as Organized Group ‘A’ Services. The fundamental attribute of an OGAS is a structured cadre management system ensuring assured career progression through internal promotions, particularly for posts up to the Senior Administrative Grade (SAG), which in these forces corresponds to the level of Inspector General (IG).
It is precisely this principle that cadre officers have been consistently asserting. The demand is simple and legitimate: that posts up to SAG level be filled by promotion from within the cadre, as is the norm across other OGAS in the Government of India. This is neither a demand for exclusivity nor an opposition to deputation. Deputation is a well-recognized administrative tool, and we are not against it. However, deputation cannot become a mechanism to structurally deny cadre officers their rightful promotional avenues.
The issue has also been examined judicially. The Supreme Court of India, after considering all arguments—including those relating to operational requirements, coordination, and leadership inputs from IPS officers—did not accept the justification for continued deviation from OGAS principles in CAPFs. The spirit of that judgment was to restore parity and uphold cadre rights.
It is pertinent to note that the Railway Protection Force, functioning under the Ministry of Railways, has moved towards implementing the judicial directive in letter and spirit. This demonstrates that administrative alignment with the legal position is both feasible and practical. The divergence in approach by the Ministry of Home Affairs, therefore, raises legitimate concerns.
What is even more troubling is the recent legislative attempt to accord statutory backing to a structure that effectively bypasses the intent of the judicial pronouncement. If this perception holds true, it risks undermining not only cadre morale but also the sanctity of service rules and the principle of equality across OGAS.
The recurring arguments—that IPS officers are inherently more competent, better strategists, or superior in coordination—are neither substantiated nor relevant in a rules-based system. Competence is not the monopoly of any one service, and institutional frameworks cannot be built on subjective assessments. CAPF cadre officers have decades of operational experience, field exposure, and institutional knowledge that are indispensable to these forces.
Let us, therefore, not lose sight of the real issue. This is about:
•Upholding the defined structure of Organized Group ‘A�� Services
•Ensuring fair and predictable career progression for cadre officers
•Respecting judicial pronouncements
•Maintaining institutional integrity over individual or service-based preferences
We are not against any service, nor are we seeking to exclude anyone. We are only seeking what is already recognized in law and practice across the Government of India.
I hope you will reconsider your position in light of these facts and engage with the issue in its proper legal and administrative context.@PMOIndia @HMOIndia

@Shubh_ara@SudhanshuTrived Indian Army ko kon si service lead karegi, IAF ko kon lead karega, Indian Navy, Indian Coast Guard, RR, AR inko kon lead karega.
CAPF ki galti kya h.
Army k sath war mein lad sakte hain,
Internal security ki jo bhi samasya ho usse ladne mein saksham hain, jitni bhi prakratik aapdayein aaye, unse nipatne mein saksham hain.
Phir inki galti kya h?
Urgent actions needed to remove stagnation in CRPF for both the entry levels of Constables and Assistant Commandants.They are back bones of the Force & ACs lead operations,get injured & killled. Need organised service benefits like medical cadre. @AmitShah@crpfindia@MHAIndia
@RDA_SJH The steel frame is rusted now, time to look beyond IPS. Doctors deserve respect and security in line of duty. But who will give security IF IPS itself behaves like this.
@MeghUpdates A CRPF jawan, though considered civilian employee by the Govt, gets to spend only 75-80 days in a year with their families. Remaining 9 months, they are deployed in extreme conditions. Such incidents will increase unless Govt understands their role.
