In a rather strange case, a BSF sub-officer has been warned and issued a show cause notice by his commanding officer (CO) for failing to attend a ceremonial ‘rope pulling’ farewell party of a senior at a forced camp in West Bengal, leading to a “war of letters” between the two.
The officiating CO of the 155th battalion of the Border Security Force, a second-in-command rank official, shot of another letter to the Inspector under him after the latter argued that such an event was “neither regimental or official” and is meant to be accorded only to the head of the unit or establishment, according to records accessed by PTI.
