CRPF mulls restoring Army ranks abolished 30 years ago; promotions, Agniveers in focus
The CRPF is reviewing the possibility of reinstating Army ranks that were removed three decades ago, with a particular emphasis on promotion pathways and the Agniveer scheme. Headquarters has instructed hundreds of field formations nationwide to hold stakeholder meetings, called ‘Sainik Sammelans,’ within two days to collect personnel opinions on the proposal. This move aims to address concerns about career progression and morale.
