Daljit Singh Chawdhary, a seasoned 1990 batch Indian Police Service (IPS) officer from the Uttar Pradesh cadre, has been appointed as the new Director General of the Border Security Force (BSF). He assumed this critical role on Saturday, following the premature repatriation of the former Director General, Nitin Agarwal, to his parent cadre in Kerala. Here are five key points to know about the new BSF chief:

1. Extensive Experience in Uttar Pradesh: Throughout his 34-year career, Chawdhary has held various positions in Uttar Pradesh, India’s most populous state. His extensive experience in handling complex security operations in such a high-stakes environment has prepared him well for his role at the national level.
