NEW DELHI: After BSF Jawan Tej Bahadur, spoke out about poor facilities and living conditions in the barracks, one Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) constable Jeet Singh came out and posted a video with a message addressing to the Prime Minister Narendra Modi about allege discrimination over facilities.

Singh who presently deployed in Mount Abu hails from Mathura. In his video, he has appealed the PM to look into the facilities that are provided to the paramilitary forces.

In a selfie video, Singh alleges that CRPF jawans are deprived of a number of facilities, despite the fact that the force is deployed for every event - big or small. Lok Sabha elections, Rajya Sabha elections, even the local gram panchayat elections - CRPF jawans are always present. Even after working so much, there's a stark difference between the facilities the Indian Army and the CRPF gets.

Singh alleged that while government school teachers get decent salaries and leaves during festival time, the CRPF is deployed in conflict zones, without even welfare or holidays.

The Indian Army gets pension, while the CRPF is no longer eligible for pension, ex-serviceman quota, canteen facilities or medical, despite working the most, Singh said. The jawan said he was positive that Prime Minister Modi was listening to his appeal. In a statement, the CRPF said it has taken cognisance of Jeet Singh's video. He (Jeet) has not complained about any organisation, only voiced his aspiration.
