Any estimate of how much money would be required to equip our 8500-9500 strong SF (comprising of 5-6K Para SF + 1.5 K Garud + 2K Marcos) upto NATO SF standards?

 

[rkhanna]

MXC for SF and Arad for the Infantry/CAPF Standard is what I want.

Doesn't the army want the 762/39 for COIN duties and considers it inadequate for Infantry?

I want 7.62 for COIN units only, it creates a perfect hole in Jihadi arses.
But 7.62 is not good for infantry.

last time Congress wanted to give IB tooth and nail through NCTC Under IB. But Some CMs' Opposed it.

Germany a country of a size of 350,000 km sq, has split its federal law enforcement agencies separately with domestic intelligence agency. Both federal (gsg-9, mek) and internal intelligence agency (department s) has highly equipped and trained sf units for combat terrorism. Other federal units include bfe+ to bridge the gap between state and federal agencies, just like nsg. This is how every developed country deals with national security

India isn't Germany

Your right on one point India is not Germany, since German Federal government has got more balls to upheld their law and constitution, unlike the case here. If the government had the guts, they would have imposed president rule in WB after those post poll violence over there, hence the reason why you need to grow a serious pair

Yesterday we were discussing that intelligence bureau must have one special forces well special task force comes under IB

 

[shuvo@y2k10]

No point in constituting separate special forces in IB. The IB comes under MHA which already has special/semi-special forces like NSG, CRPF QATs etc. In addition, each of the CAPFs have commando wings under them. That is enough for operations within India.

What is required is to modernize them, equip them with advanced weapons and gadgets and most importantly the political will to utilize them.

The policing situation will improve in India only if the Supreme Court ruling on Police reforms of 2006 is properly impelemnted. No state has implemented it so far.

I would GOI takes every ruling of Supreme Court on any policy issues as some sort of divine ruling and implement to to the last word, even rejecting the laws passed by the Parliament, then what is the problem in implementing the Police reforms.

Police reforms still largely only on paper

In 2006, the Supreme Court issued seven directives for police reform in Prakash Singh and others vs Union of India and others. The sixth directive required each State and Union Territory to constitut
