Like you said, PARA SF training and skills are more versatile and multi-dimension in nature ..
Ghatak on other hand is specifically design to take-care of LOC issues ..
Ghataks Are all Round Trained for LOC issues But Also In whole Aspect conventional war To Lead Whole battalion of infantry Raiding parties Directly In To war
Special Forces Are raised For meeting Special strategic objectives in War Conventionally or unconventionally But there only Limited to that role
But In conventional War as a Infantry Troop ghataks are Meant To Take all there battalions To confront whole Mechanized infantry or enemy Brigade or capture enemy positions there objectives are more bigger and have large strategic implication in Objectives of war
Be It any war It Infantry Regiment And Its Ranks Have Legacy To Make Whole Armed forces Proud
Be It Be Major Shaitan singh With His 123 Mens in at Rezang La against human waves of PLA or CAPT Manoj pandey in Khalubar Or Vikram batra Mushkoh Valley, Many More
That's reason Army Makes Mandatory To Its officers To pass Ghatak Course
PS: I Still Regard PARAS as Most highly trained Mofos And Assets of our strategic Inventory But I don't Like Elitism
And Ranks of Infantry Battalions Proven of this countless Times that they can Be As Versatile And Can Display extra ordinary Results We they are called upon
