Delhi Police buys Russian sniper rifles to boost security for G20 Summit
In preparation for the upcoming G20 Summit, the Delhi Police is acquiring Russian Dragunov sniper rifles, a move aimed at boosting security measures, said undisclosed sources in an interview with TOI. Skilled marksmen armed with these rifles will be strategically positioned atop high-end hotels in central Delhi, Aerocity, and other crucial spots across the city.

Although senior officers have chosen to keep mum on the matter, reliable police insiders suggest that instead of purchasing these rifles outright, the police force might secure them on loan from either the army or paramilitary units. A basic Dragunov SVD rifle comes at a price of Rs 2-3 lakh, with costs potentially reaching Rs 5 lakh depending on preferred accessories. For the limited duration of the G20 Summit, Delhi Police anticipates the need for 70-100 rifles, as confirmed by insiders to TOI ..

Within the same TOI news report, sources at the Police Headquarters reveal that approximately 250 trained marksmen are ready for G20 duty. These professionals will work in shifts of eight hours each, and a pool of over two dozen marksmen will be on standby.

The choice of the Dragunov sniper rifle was not for its peak performance, but rather for its dependability and simplicity, explains an investigator familiar with the situation. The Dragunov is proficient at ranges of 700-800 meters, a capability deemed adequate by city police for use during the global summit scheduled for September.

The Russian Dragunov sniper rifle is renowned for its accuracy and long-range capability. It uses a powerful 7.62x54mmR cartridge that can penetrate body armor and soft targets at long ranges. To provide increased protection, expert marksmen armed with Dragunov rifles will be stationed atop high-end hotels in downtown Delhi, Aerocity, and critical places.

To ensure their effectiveness, the snipers will collaborate with around 50 spotters equipped with advanced night vision binoculars. These spotters will be stationed nearby and maintain close communication with the snipers, promptly alerting them to any unusual activities. Moreover, these spotters could also be deployed during Independence Day celebrations, assisting snipers positioned at the Red Fort and its vicinity.

Officials highlight that the Dragunov SVD is a reliable gas-operated rifle, designed for easy use, maintenance, and repair despite its long barrel. Officers affirm that marksmen have the capability to customize the sniper rifle with different sighting systems, suitable for both daytime and nighttime operations, based on the task and combat setting.

While the Dragunov allows for rapid follow-up shots due to its semi-automatic nature, it comes with certain limitations. Officers from the special weapons and tactics (SWAT) unit note that the ejection of fired cases could inadvertently disclose the sniper's position. Furthermore, the rifle's optimal range is within 500-700 meters.

The Indian army is a notable user of these rifles, with estimates suggesting that at one point, around 7,000 of these weapons were in service. Reports hint that an upgrade may be in the works rather than a complete replacement, as the army explores other advanced sniper options.

Security measures include more than just formidable weaponry. To vigilantly watch the city, a variety of measures, including drones and modern surveillance technology, are being used. The police are undertaking simulated exercises to assess the effectiveness of these security measures in order to strengthen their preparations.

In addition to the sniper rifles, Delhi Police is also acquiring communication devices, security equipment, and vehicles to enhance overall security measures. There are plans to introduce an advanced digital trunking radio system, aiming to enhance communication among police personnel. The force is also set to acquire modern tools for identifying liquid explosives and portable equipment for thorough vehicle inspections.

The G20 Summit is a major international event that brings together leaders from the world's leading economies. With strict security measures expected, the Delhi Police are making every effort to protect both delegations and the general public.

Complementing the use of Dragunov sniper rifles and marksmen, the Delhi Police are executing the following security strategies ahead of the G20 Summit:

• Heightened Police Presence: The number of police personnel on active duty will be significantly increased.
• Strategic Checkpoints: Essential locations will feature checkpoints and barricades.
• Random Checks: Vehicles and pedestrians will undergo random searches to deter potential threats.

• Aerial Surveillance: The police are incorporating drones and other surveillance technology for comprehensive oversight.
• Drill Exercises: Mock drills are being carried out to gauge the effectiveness of security protocols.

The Delhi Police has stated unequivocally that security plans for the G20 Summit will be both rigorous and comprehensive. Every feasible precaution is being taken to ensure the summit's success, with a dedication to the safety of all guests and the general public.

Additional insights into the G20 Summit's security arrangements:

• Collaboration with Intelligence Agencies: The Delhi Police are collaborating closely with the National Security Guard (NSG) and other intelligence bodies to fortify safety measures.
• Thorough Testing: Security drills are being conducted to assess the efficiency of diverse security measures.
• Airspace Security: Partnership with the Indian Air Force has been established to secure the airspace around Delhi ..
  
  Traffic Management: To ensure seamless traffic flow during the summit, collaboration with the Delhi government is ongoing.
  
  The forthcoming G20 Summit holds immense significance for India, and the Delhi Police are steadfast in their determination to ensure its triumph. Their unwavering confidence in the foolproof nature of their security arrangements underscores their commitment to a safe and secure summit environment.

I’ve lost an uncle (Insp Mohan Chand Sharma, who won Ashoka chakra in a police raid on Indian mujahideen militants).

The ops he and his men in special cell used to do were quite tough. Used to go around the country, from Jammu to Andhra, apprehending and arresting terrorists or killingthem in encounters. He had even been injured while killing one of the sleeper cels responsible for 2000 red fort attack. Wish I could post some of the ops here, but those were quite hard and tough, although nowhere on the level of the army

The fact is that these so called “commandos” wouldn’t be able to do the easiest op he did.

Men like him die on the fields while clownslike these get the PR exposure.
