- Bomdila police-Army incident refers to events which occurred in Bomdila, India on 2 November 2018, when two soldiers from the 2nd Arunachal Scouts Battalion (an Indian Army unit) were arrested and allegedly beaten by the Arunachal Pradesh police. The police alleged that the soldiers were involved in an altercation with civilians and local police, and the army alleged that the soldiers were arrested without cause. After their release, the soldiers were hospitalized at the Tengah Air Base hospital with serious injuries. The following day, Colonel Firdosh P. Dubash of the 2nd Arunachal Scouts Battalion (2 ASB) informed West Kameng district Superintendent of Police Raja Bhantia that the beating and humiliation of his soldiers had angered his troops. Dubash warned the Arunachal Pradesh Police SSP that he would not tolerate further harassment of his battalion. The Deputy and Superintendent of Police released an edited video of Dubash warning the police without context. The IAS Association and Indian Police Service (IPS) officers requested the government take action against Dubash. IAS Association president Rakesh Srivastava wrote a letter to Defence Secretary Sanjay Mitra, urging the secretary to take measures against 2 ASB. Srivastava accused the army unit of assault and vandalising public property. The accusations against the army unit and its commanding officer by the IPS and the IAS association were reported in the India media and caused outrage, alarm, and disappointment in the general public because of the outrageous behavior of the armed forces personnel. The former Chief of Army Staff and Vice Chief of Army Staff, concerned about a possible national-security impact, criticised the accusations and involvement of the IAS and IPS. The army response underscored tensions between the armed forces and the IAS and IPS. (en)
