Provided there is a separate ARMED POLICE FORCE in every STATE and UT besides IRBn force??Basically the concept of I.R.B. was first proposed by the Late PM Indira Gandhi ji as a mean to have a trained and uniformed armed police force in every state that would be trained and armed along the lines of the Central police forces and could be deployed anywhere in the country at a short notice.This is how the I.R.B.s came into existence way back in 1971.The Union Govt usually provides 60% of the cost of raising and arming such battalions.Currently,India has around 250 I.R.B.s spread across 28 states and 8 U.T.s
