J&K Police to get Sig Sauer Rifles and Pistols

[Zarvan]

We don't need to arm regular police since there's not a lot of gun culture except for some UP, Bihar and MP. Post 26/11, most major cities did establish CT or SWAT units who are decently equipped while NSG also setup 5 hubs in Mumbai, Kolkata, Hyderabad, Chennai and Gandhinagar apart from their HQ in Manesar. States are more relying on these units rather than requesting central help. For instance, the 2015 Gurdaspur attack has been solely led and handled by Punjab Police SWAT unit despite NSG being on-site

A few examples below

Some units like Mumbai's Force-1 have been trained by Israelis and are decently equipped. Again, not every state has a highly effective CT/SWAT unit though except for some basic commandos and the numbers are currently unknown. Given the threat level, these units should suffice as a first response but if it's spread across multiple locations, they'd obviously have to call in NSG

As for peace in Kashmir, ton of countries have troublesome regions. Same goes for your western front but that warrants a whole new discussion. Let's stick to solely equipping JKP SOG in this thread

By the time they would arrive damage would have been done.

Depends on the proximity...if the attack is in a city they're stationed in, there's a good chance to corner or limit the movement of the attackers but if it's in a Tier-II/III city, there's no other option but to wait. What sucks is the police stations in villages and smaller towns still carry those vintage LeEnfield rifles with those in cities mostly carrying hand down AKs or Insas from the army

Nevertheless, I don't expect militant attacks to happen in smaller towns unless there's some military installation in there since that wouldn't garner the media and international attention similar to 26/11

Agree...and it is quite evident from all the BLA & TTP fighters ambushing pak troops on your western front

Baluchistan is different from Indian Occupied Kashmir, due to it's vast / expansive terrain. A person with even limited understanding of warfare will be able to understand the dynamics involved in Baluchistan as compared to Indian occupied Kashmir. The later is more of an urban warfare scenario.

IOK freedom fighters need to be equipped with NVs and TDs along with 5.56 caliber rifles and we will see IA personnel dropping like flies.

Says a keyboard warrior who I'm pretty sure never held a gun in his life. I wonder why would anyone assume jungle warfare or urban warfare is any different from fighting in open terrains. In fact, there is a higher probability for collateral damage in the former theatres but again, it all depends on training & equipment of troops, strategies incorporated, support systems and mechanisms, and the willingness of govt and armed forces to bring down adversaries.

pakistanis might feel your terrain is harder, we might feel otherwise

BLA has been wiped out alongside the UBA. BLF and BRAS remain the only 2 elusive orgs that pose a sort of threat. Speaking of freedom fighter attacks... How many indian soldiers died due to 'mysterious us circumstances' this week?

Oh and TTP is being wiped out as we speak . Must make you cry when you see your investments end dead on the floor, with a 7.62 mm lodged between the eyes

but salwar and slipper wearing Baloch freedom fighters armed with beat down AKs' are dropping pak troops like flies

Someone hasnt been alive for the past 5 months now have they... Since the op its the terrorists thats been dropping like flies. Same with yours. 17 in the PAFF ambush and another 3 this week.
