Jammu and Kashmir Police: Colonel Vikrant has been appointed Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) to strengthen the security in Jammu and Kashmir. Colonel Vikrant Parashar, who has led many successful operations, is considered an experienced and capable officer. While one faction is happy about his appointment, the other faction is angry. However, opposition to his appointment has been stated. Former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti said that we have been told that Jammu and Kashmir have the same rights and rules that apply anywhere in the country. Wonder why and under what special status the local administration is ordering the most unusual appointment of a colonel as SSP in Jammu and Kashmir Police?

Who is Karnal Vikrant Parashar?

Lieutenant Colonel Vikrant Parashar of 10 PARA has led many anti-terrorism operations. In August 2018, he led an operation against high-profile terrorists in a crowded area. Colonel Vikrant Parashar was highly praised for foiling the plans of the terrorists. Colonel Vikrant was also awarded the A++ category Keshourya Chakra.

The appointment of Vikrant Parashar is being seen as a strategic move to further strengthen the capabilities of the police in dealing with sensitive security challenges. The Jammu and Kashmir Police has been at the forefront of combating terrorism and maintaining law and order in Jammu and Kashmir, often working with the army and paramilitary forces.
