The Centre on Wednesday ordered the "immediate" withdrawal of about 10,000 paramilitary personnel from the Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir. This is the biggest de-induction of these forces after additional troops were rushed to the UT after the abrogation of Article 370 of the Constitution that gave the erstwhile state a unique status. An official order read that the decision was taken after the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA).
