CRPF’s Expanding Role in Counter-Terror Operations in Jammu & Kashmir

As per April, 2025 reports:

1. Under directions from Indian MHA, the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) announced the raising of the 11th CoBRA battalion, specifically for counter-terror operations in J&K, particularly in forested regions such as Jammu division.
2. This marks a significant shift from CoBRA’s original jungle warfare focus in Naxal-affected states.

As per July, 2025 reports:

1. The MHA approved 20 new CRPF battalions for deployment in J&K, post the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack and ‘Operation Sindoor’.
2. While CRPF initially requested 35 battalions, 20 were sanctioned immediately.
3. Over 20,000 additional personnel will be inducted.
4. The move is seen as part of a broader strategic recalibration.
5. These battalions will focus on nakas, district deployments, checking/frisking, and law & order, supporting local police in anti-militancy operations.

As per August, 2025 reports:

1. CRPF's role in CT-operations in Jammu will expand. Special focus on Samba, Kathua and Udhampur. These three areas are ear-marked AORs of Kashmir Tigers, a proxy of Jaish-e-Mohammad.
2. Deployment includes: 25+ CRPF companies + 2 CoBRA units, marking the first major deployment of CoBRA commandos in Jammu.
3. These elite units will operate in hinterland and high-altitude terrains along the International Border.

Shift in Operational Leadership

1. CRPF will now spearhead anti-terror operations in Kathua and Udhampur, replacing the Indian Army as the lead force.
2. Earlier Army deployments included two brigades as first responders to the terrorism spike.
3. CRPF is now occupying strategic heights to deny safe havens to terrorists.

Multi-Agency Coordination and Restructuring

1. Operations will involve close coordination with J&K Police and Indian Army Special Forces.
2. Indian Army's Parachute Regiment Special Forces have undergone internal restructuring, repositioning to support CRPF leadership in operations.
3. While not a major overhaul, this restructuring aligns forces to optimize operational effectiveness under the new CRPF-led strategy.

This is a welcoming step as it will fill the existing gaps in the CT/CI deployment in Doda-Kathua-Kishtwar-Udhampur region. Soon, Uniform Force of Rashtriya Rifles will be redeployed to Reasi from Eastern Ladakh. It was moved to Eastern Ladakh following the Galwan Valley clash in 2020. A new 72 Infantry Division has been raised recently which will eventually relieve Uniform Force.

❗Bangladesh would welcome broader participation in Pakistan, Bangladesh & China Trilateral, perhaps one or two other countries could join their Trilateral.

1. Pakistan’s Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar is scheduled to visit Dhaka on 23 August. This will be the first bilateral visit of any Pakistani foreign minister in the past three decades.

2. Bangladesh seeks normal relations with Pakistan
