                        I deem it an honour that the charge of the Odisha Sector of the CRPF has been entrusted to me. This Sector consists of 02 Ranges, Bhubaneswar and Sambalpur. The Sector has operational jurisdiction over the entire State of Odisha wherein 08 CRPF GD Bns and 01 CoBRA BN are deployed. They have been attending to challenging duties like combating naxalism in Odisha State, despite all prevailing odds.  The Sector has also administrative control over 10 GD Bns which are deployed in various operational theatres of the Country.

The Sector has successfully enthused youngsters to participate in sports under the Civic Action Programme in different regions of the state of Odisha. Assistance is also being provided to the civilian population during calamities and natural disturbances.

Men and officers of the units under this Sector have displayed commendable courage while carrying out risky assignments, especially in naxalism, insurgency and terror-affected parts of the country.

                        I am sure they will keep the flag of the CRPF flying high, and dedicate themselves to the Nation.
