 CRPF is highly sensitive to the welfare of its Jawans. Regular efforts are made for redressal of their grievances at several levels.  In the event of any achievement/major incident in the field, the DG and senior officers promptly  visit them to raise their  morale.  The Force has also started a practice of sending weekly e-letters to field formations for dissemination of information pertaining to their service and welfare measures by quickest means.  Even on the occasion of Raising Day of the Force, senior officers preferred to celebrate the day with the men in the field, to boost their morale in difficult operational areas.
