DEHRADUN: Twenty-two women now form Uttarakhand’s first all-women elite commando force for anti-terrorist and counter-insurgency operations. On Tuesday, Uttarakhand Police formally inducted the all-women Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS), ready for its first deployment at the Mahakumbh in Haridwar.
“Uttarakhand is now the fourth state in the country to have an elite women commando force,” Uttarakhand chief minister Trivendra Singh Rawat said at the induction ceremony at police lines here. The first all-women commando force was Delhi’s ATS SWAT team, inducted in 2018. Earlier this month, Karnataka started training its first batch of all-women Garuda commandos, the state’s own anti-terror force. “This will inspire other women to join the force and serve the country,” the CM added.
