New Delhi: The Supreme Court on Tuesday issued notice to the Centre on a plea challenging the constitutional validity of the Central Armed Police Forces (General Administration) Act, 2026, on the ground that it violates the doctrine of separation of powers.
A bench of Justices Manoj Misra and Vijay Bishnoi was hearing the plea of 34 Central Armed Police Forces' officers who contended that the new law amounts to an overriding of the court's earlier decision which barred the deputation of IPS officers in the CAPFs.
