Rajya Sabha passes CAPF (General Administration) Bill 2026 amid strong opposition protests
New Delhi, April 1 (SocialNews.XYZ) The Rajya Sabha on Wednesday passed the Central Armed Police Forces (General Administration) Bill, 2026 by a voice vote, marking a significant step towards unifying administrative and service rules for India's five major paramilitary forces -- the CRPF, the BSF, the CISF, the ITBP, and the SSB. The Bill seeks to create a single overarching legal framework for recruitment, promotions, deputation, and conditions of service of Group A officers in the Central Armed Police Forces (CAPFs), replacing the existing fragmented regime of separate Acts for each force.
