CRPF promotes 5,000 non-gazetted personnel in 'special drive'

About 5,000 jawans and sub-officers of the CRPF have been promoted this month in a special drive to boost morale, including personnel in various ranks and roles. The promotions were conducted following a directive to shun old practices and hold DPC meetings for non-gazetted personnel from next year, with a comprehensive list prepared and promotion orders issued before the new system starts in 2025.
