Govt committed to provide best facilities to forces: Manmohan Singh

NEW DELHI: Prime Minister Manmohan Singh said the government is committed to providing the best possible facilities to the Central Armed Police Forces personnel who are serving the nation in very adverse conditions, risking their lives.

After laying the foundation stone for the Central Armed Police Forces Institute of Medical Sciences (CAPFIMS), Singh said men and women of these Forces — CRPF, BSF, CISF, ITBP, SSB, Assam Rifles and NSG — work in very adverse conditions, often at considerable risk to their lives.

"The Institute exemplifies our Government's commitment to provide the best possible facilities to the Central Armed Police Forces," he said.

The Central Armed Police Forces personnel are deployed in some of the most difficult places in the country including the Left-Wing Extremism affected States, the North-Eastern States and Jammu and Kashmir.

"Today marks a very important step forward towards the establishment of the Central Armed Police Forces Institute of Medical Sciences (CAPFIMS). It is a matter of great happiness for all of us that this project has finally reached the implementation stage," the Prime Minister said.

Singh said the CAPFIMS will serve a long-felt need. It will ensure better health care for the families of the Central Armed Police Forces personnel, who spend much of their time away from home discharging their arduous and onerous responsibilities.

"This will, in turn, lead to higher morale and more efficient functioning of these Forces," he said.

Singh said the central government had sanctioned 126 additional battalions in these Forces, out of which 71 battalions have already been raised and the remaining are expected to be raised within the current financial year.

"We have also given focused attention to strengthening infrastructure and building capacity. The 12th Plan outlay for strengthening infrastructure for Central Armed Police Forces is more than Rs 12,500 crore. Since the year 2008, 24 new training institutes have been sanctioned for these Forces," he said.
