Operational Man Of The Season: S.L Thaosen Leads India's Core Paramilitary Architecture

Every IPS officer working at middle to higher ranks in the paramilitary aspires to be its DG. But getting the opportunity to head India's core paramilitary architecture irrespective of it being an 'additional charge arrangement' is beyond an officer's imagination. However, at one time it was but nowadays, officer holding the post of DG CRPF can expect such upgradation, top sources say. However, this may not be the case every time, even if an officer is heading one paramilitary force, especially the CRPF has to prove its mettle and competence to get the opportunity to lead India's core paramilitary architecture- Sujoy Thaosen to some extent has proven that he is not only operationally bright but also a sound strategist, this was also instrumental in winning the confidence of national security top brasses, top sources say. Power corridors do compare him with S.S Deswal on how Deswal also held multiple additional charges of India's paramilitary force but Deswal slightly fell short of leading India's Paramilitary Architecture by not getting DG CRPF in his hat, top sources say.
