CRPF Valour Day is marked each year in tribute to the courage and sacrifice of CRPF personnel, with particular recognition of those who fought with distinction during the 1965 conflict.
Earlier on Tuesday, the Home Minister remained actively engaged in election campaigning in Assam, expressing confidence that the BJP would secure another term in office. He indicated that, if returned to power, the state government would take up key policy matters such as the Uniform Civil Code at an early stage.
During his campaign speeches, Shah criticised opposition figures, including Rahul Gandhi and Mamata Banerjee, over their positions on citizenship-related issues. He reiterated the party’s commitment to identifying illegal entrants and removing them from electoral rolls.
Shah addressed rallies in multiple locations, including Cachar and Hailakandi, urging voters to support the BJP in the ongoing Assembly elections.
Voting is taking place across all 126 constituencies in Assam, and results are likely for declaration on May 4.
