Panel seeks cadre review to end CAPF promotion stagnation

Prolonged stagnation at supervisory levels may adversely impact the morale and career progression of Central Armed Police Force (CAPF) personnel, a parliamentary panel noted on Tuesday and recommended “a comprehensive cadre review” of the ranks to examine vacancy position and promotion avenues and timelines. The Committee, chaired by Radha Mohan das Agrawal, recommended that steps may also be taken to ensure parity in career progression among officials/officers of different CAPFs.
In its report tabled in both houses of Parliament on Tuesday, the Standing Committee on Home Affairs said appropriate measures, including rationalisation of promotional quotas, timely conduct of Departmental Promotion Committees meetings and review of cadre structure, may be considered to ensure a fair and time-bound career progression framework.
