Around 10,000 paramilitary forces personnel will be immediately withdrawn from the Union Territory of Jammu & Kashmir, the Central government said in an order on August 19. The forces were deployed in Jammu and Kashmir in August last year. They were deployed as a precautionary measure when the Centre ended the state's special status and bifurcated it into two Union Territories. Decision was taken after the Union Home Ministry reviewed the deployment of the Central Armed Police Forces or CAPFs in the union territory. As per the order, of the 100 companies, 40 will be from the Central Reserve Police Force and 20 each of the Central Industrial Security Force, the Border Security Force and the Sashastra Seema Bal. The companies will now go wherever they were deployed before being moved to Jammu and Kashmir. Jammu and Kashmir was placed under a strong security blanket in August 2019 after the Centre's move to prevent a possible backlash.
