Use this thread to post all news, pictures & updates (as well as discussions, debates, observations & opinions - regarding any aspect: personnel, equipment, command structure, training etc.) pertaining to the various Special Operations Forces of India. These mainly comprise of:
Para (Special Forces) (Army)
Marine Commandos/MARCOS (Navy)
Garud Commando Force (Air Force)
...alongside other, lesser-known units such as the Special Frontier Force (SFF) and the still-lesser known Special Group/4 Vikas (SG).

Although the National Security Guard (NSG) is a force under the Ministry of Home Affairs, it draws personnel from the Army - and their mission, operating style and equipment make them a particularly interesting force to follow (at least for me) from both a law enforcement & anti-terrorism standpoint. So any content of the kind mentioned above pertaining to the NSG (including the 51 & 52 Special Action Groups and the Special Rangers Group) is to be posted & discussed in this thread, as well.
