CRPF shunts out all its IPS officers
New Delhi, July 12: The tussle between the top brass of the state police and the Central security forces in Chhattisgarh has reportedly forced the CRPF to shift all its IPS officers engaged in anti-Naxal operations there outside the state.
Recently, the office of the CRPF special DG (Central Zone), Mr Vijay Raman (IPS), has also been shifted from Raipur to Kolkata.
Prior to this, admitting lapses at the command level in the anti-Naxal operations in Dantewada, in which 76 personnel were killed by the Maoists on April 6, the CRPF had shunted out the force DIG, Mr Nalin Prabhat, an IPS, from Chhattisgarh to Chandigarh.
According to sources, at present the posts of IGs (both operations and administration) of the CRPF in Chhattisgarh are being held by CRPF cadre officers. Besides, CRPF cadre officers are also holding the posts of DIGs of Dantewada, Narayanpur, Bijapur and Raipur.
“Right from IGs to DIGs in CRPF in Chhattisgarh are from CRPF cadre. Not even a single IPS-cadre officer is posted in CRPF in Chhattisgarh. This might have happened because of the differences with top officials of Chhattisgarh police”, sources added.

Why only in chhattisgarh, why not shunted out IPS officers from other places like Delhi and other major cities. Actually it is the game played by IPS officers who bothered about their skin and want to leave from the disturbed areas and desired to remain posted at major cities of the country where as the innocent/sincere cadre officers of CRPF feel as if they practically shunted these IPS officers.
