    Rajya Sabha has passed the Central Armed Police Forces (General Administration) Bill, 2026, which aims to overhaul service rules for CAPFs such as BSF, CRPF, CISF, ITBP and SSB. 

    The Bill reserves 50% of Inspector‑General posts and at least 67% of Additional Director‑General posts, plus all Senior‑level posts, for IPS officers on deputation, overriding a 2025 Supreme Court ruling calling for a phased reduction in such deputation. 

    Opposition members opposed the move, calling it “unconstitutional” and against paramilitary officers’ morale, and walked out during the voice‑vote passage.
