Operation Sindoor: Security personnel called to J&K asked to return to original duties, resume pending leaves, says report

As the tensions following the India-Pakistan conflict have eased,  security personnel who were urgently mobilised in response to the crisis are now being asked to return to their original duties and resume pending leaves. Troops who were being positioned for immediate deployment to Jammu & Kashmir are now being instructed to remain at their current stations until further orders.

According to News18, a recent communication from a senior official of a Central Armed Police Force (CAPF) responsible for Jammu & Kashmir directed that all troops who were recalled from leave during the tense period may now be permitted to resume their leave, if any days remain.

“With reference to the subject matter, you are informed that during the unforeseen situation in the country, the personnel of the force who were on leave and were recalled can be sent back on leave if any days are left," the communication reads.

During  Operation Sindoor, Union Home Minister Amit Shah  directed chiefs of all paramilitary forces to call back their personnel who are on leave in the wake of the strikes carried out by the Indian armed forces in Pakistan as a retaliatory action against the Pahalgam terror attack.
