In his speech, Danve praised the services of the RPF and highlighted their dedication and bravery. He mentioned that RPF personnel have risked their lives during incidents like the 26/11 attacks in Mumbai and the Balasore tragedy. He also noted that the RPF has the largest percentage of women among paramilitary forces, with 9% female representation.
