NEW DELHI: The country’s two largest paramilitary forces CRPF and BSF today got new chiefs.
Former SPG chief K Durga Prasad took over as the Director General of CRPF, while senior IPS officer K K Sharma took the reins of BSF at their respective headquarters here.
Prasad, a 1981-batch Telangana cadre IPS officer, took charge from his predecessor Prakash Mishra who superannuated as the chief of the about 3-lakh personnel strong force today.
He said his priorities will be to further sharpen and enhance the operational capabilities and better training of the men and women of Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF).
“In the last one year, things have gone in the right direction and I will like to maintain the tempo and speed up the technical upgradation of the force.
“I have told my troops that we need to work with all the zeal and enthusiasm in a professional manner to deliver the results expected from us,” Prasad said. (AGENCIES)
