Rozgar Mela: PM Modi distributes over 51k appointment letters to newly recruited ‘Amrit Rakshak’

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday virtually distributed 51,000 appointment letters to new recruits under the Rozgar Mela.

The Ministry of Home Affairs is recruiting personnel in various central armed police forces (CAPFs) such as the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF), Border Security Force (BSF), Shashtra Seema Bal (SSB), Assam Rifles, Central Industrial Security Force (CISF), Indo Tibetan Border Police (ITBP) and Narcotics control Bureau (NCB) as well as Delhi Police under the Rozgar Mela.

Speaking on the occasion, PM Modi congratulated the new appointees for their selection as ‘Amrit Rakshak’ during the Amrit Kaal. Modi called them ‘Amrit Rakshak’ as the new appointees will not only serve the country but also protect the country and the countrymen.

“You are ‘Amrit Rakshak’ of this ‘Amrit Kaal’, said Modi.

Modi said there have been several major changes in the recruitment process of paramilitary forces in the last few years. “The process of recruitment got speeded up from application to final selection, examinations are being conducted in 13 local languages in places of English or Hindi as was the case earlier. Recruitment of hundreds of tribal youth in Naxal-affected areas of Chhattisgarh was done by relaxing norms,” said Modi.
