CRPF considers reinstating Army ranks to boost promotions and attract Agniveers
- The Central Reserve Police Force CRPF is considering restoring Lance Naik and Naik ranks, abolished in 1997.
- • Currently, CRPF constables wait around 22–25 years for their first promotion, causing frustration among personnel.
- Restoring these ranks could give constables two additional promotions before becoming Head Constables, improving career growth.
- The proposal also aims to attract retiring Agniveers, with CRPF seeking feedback from personnel before making a final decision.
