Parliamentary Panel Recommends Cadre Review to Address CAPF Promotion Stagnation

A parliamentary panel highlighted that prolonged stagnation at supervisory levels may negatively affect morale and career progression in Central Armed Police Forces (CAPFs). The Standing Committee on Home Affairs recommended a comprehensive cadre review to assess vacancies, promotion avenues, and timelines. Measures suggested include rationalizing promotional quotas, timely Departmental Promotion Committees meetings, and ensuring parity among CAPF officers. While some cadre reviews have improved progression, others remain pending, with benefits dependent on timely implementation.
