The Delhi High Court on Wednesday sought a response from the Centre on a petition alleging rampant misuse of Central Armed Police Force (CAPF) personnel, including those from the Border Security Force (BSF), for domestic work in the houses of senior officers. A Bench of Chief Justice Devendra Kumar Upadhayaya and Justice Tushar Rao Gedela issued notice on a public interest litigation (PIL) filed by serving BSF Deputy Inspector General (DIG) Sanjay Yadav, who claimed that soldiers tasked with safeguarding the nation’s borders were being diverted to perform private household chores.
