The home minister said the central government has been taking various measures to enhance the capacity building of the Central Armed Police Forces (CAPFs) and in the last five years alone, 1,773 infrastructure projects of the CAPFs have been sanctioned with a total outlay of Rs 12,060 crore.

Out of these projects, 992 projects worth Rs 4,368.93 crore have been completed and the remaining projects are under various stages of construction and will be completed in the next 2-3 years, he said.

With the completion of the residential projects under implementation, the housing satisfaction level in CAPFs will be enhanced from 39.04 per cent to 48.30 per cent against authorised dwelling units, Singh said.
