What happened: Praveen Sood’s remarks at CRPF Raising Day
CBI Director Praveen Sood spoke as the chief guest at the 88th Raising Day event of the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF). Sood said addressing agitations involving citizens can be more challenging than tackling terrorism or insurgency because using force against one’s own people is particularly difficult.
CBI Director Praveen Sood also advised CRPF preparedness for emerging threats. Sood named expanding training, using technology, and strengthening intelligence as key preparedness directions.

CBI Director Praveen Sood’s remarks were connected to protest-linked attention around a July 20 march to Parliament organized by a group referenced in the event context. This backdrop keeps protest-linked law-and-order planning within the internal security agenda.
What changed now: comparison of difficulty plus readiness directions
