The Supreme Court will hear a petition challenging the Central Armed Police Forces (General Administration) Act, 2026, which aims to override a May 2025 SC order to reduce IPS officers' deputation to CAPFs. Over 800 serving officers, including gallantry awardees like Shaurya Chakra recipient Bibhor Kumar Singh, filed the petition. Singh lost limbs in a 2022 anti-Maoist operation in Bihar. The Centre defends the IPS deputation policy.
