To boost the morale of the paramilitary personnel, nutritious food, including non-vegetarian variety, are being supplied to all camps. Home Ministry officials feel that there is an urgent need to improve the condition of CRPF camps as well as facilities offered to them. “Camps of the CRPF need to be upgraded,” Senior Security Adviser in the Home Ministry K Vijay Kumar told PTI. CRPF personnel deployed for long stints in the Naxal hotbed of Sukma in Chhattisgarh are showing signs of fatigue too. “Anti-Naxalite operations take a toll on security personnel as they face guerrilla warfare in hot and humid conditions and treacherous terrain,” an official said.
