The minister also e-inaugurated 15 newly constructed buildings in eight different campuses of the CRPF across the country that include jawan barracks, a hospital and other infrastructure.
The Central Armed Police Forces (CAPFs) include the CRPF, BSF, ITBP, SSB and CISF.
Other forces under the command of the ministry of home affairs (MHA) like the NDRF, NSG and the Assam Rifles are also part of this mega plantation drive.
