Home Ministry Extends Deployment of 273 CAPF Companies in Delhi Until October 31
The Union Home Ministry has extended the deployment of 273 Central Armed Police Forces (CAPF) companies in Delhi until October 31, marking the second extension amid concerns over potential flash protests by political and other groups. The deployment, initially ordered for protests by the Cockroach Janta Party earlier this month, includes units from CRPF, RAF, BSF, ITBP, SSB, and CISF. The Delhi Police requested the extension to maintain law and order at sensitive locations across the city, with coordination directed between the police and CAPFs.
