Retired CAPF Officers Demand Prompt Action on Supreme Court Ruling

Retired officers of the Central Armed Police Forces (CAPFs) have intensified their call for the government to implement a Supreme Court decision that grants Organized Group A Service (OGAS) benefits. They assert the need for the CAPF (General Administration) Bill, 2026 to undergo thorough parliamentary review.

Speaking at a recent conference, high-ranking former officers argued that delays in executing crucial judicial directives and the lack of structural reforms are diminishing the morale of personnel in high-risk roles. They are pressing for the new bill to address promotion bottlenecks and pension scheme issues.

Leaders like HR Singh and SK Sood emphasize the importance of addressing command structure and leadership opportunities within CAPFs to ensure operational effectiveness and internal stability. Ongoing advocacy for fair policy changes, they argue, is crucial for the future of the forces entrusted with national security responsibilities.
