'Perform your duties fearlessly...': CRPF chief backs bona fide action taken in line of duty

Amid growing controversy over the alleged use of excessive force by security personnel during recent anti-NEET paper leak protests in Delhi and other parts of the country, CRPF Director General Gyanendra Pratap Singh assured jawans and officers of his support for every bona fide decision taken in the line of duty. "As the Director General of the CRPF, I want to assure each one of you that whether it is an operational battalion or a law-and-order unit, whatever decisions you take and whatever actions you carry out in the bona fide discharge of your duties, I take responsibility for all those decisions and actions. Continue to perform your duties fearlessly. Wherever responsibility or accountability needs to be taken, I will take it as the Director General," CRPF Director General Gyanendra Pratap Singh said.
