1. Do not worry about those who have come thru boats... Our forces can easily defeat them.

WORRY about those who have come thru votes....
Those are our REAL ENEMIES….

2. What a shame and disgrace to every citizen of India that the elite NSG Force was transported into ordinary BEST buses, whereas our cricketers are transported into state of the art luxury buses, these Jawans lay down their lives to protect every Indian and these cricketers get paid even if they lose a match, we worship these cricketers and forget the martyrdom of these brave Jawans.

The Jawans should be paid the salaries of the cricketers and the cricketers should be paid the salaries of the Jawans.

3.Our NSG, BSF, ARMY, do not have a dedicated AIRCRAFT to perform rapid operations, while every tom dick n harry Minister is travelling through his Personalized Helicopter....!!!

4. Our Navy has total 25 Heavy artillery loaded ships, while a country named Korea which is smaller than Chattisgarh has 250 Heavy artillery loaded ships for the security of there coasts.

5. An ace shooter shoots and gets gold medal, govt gives 1cr, another shooterdieswhile shooting terrorist, govt gives 5 lakh.

WHO DESERVES MORE Our Commando's or Cricketers?

Huh.. This is our India....

In another point of view we can learn a lot from these so called militants. They know they will die, even then they are doing the extreme job in an excellent manner. Has made a long sea travel, fooled our Intelligence agencies, the so called proud professional Indian Navy and the Coast guard. Finally they have launched a terror attack on key spots and become successful in causing heavy loss to the nation and its men.

They have shown the daring to fight for long 60 hours with the trained sharp shooters of Mumbai police, Commandos of Army and Navy and finally the elite NSG commandos.

We too can learn a lot from these militants who have planned and executed their mission in a meticulous manner.

Alas !, 10 militants are causing 183 deaths in India's financial capital.

National Security Guards (NSG) is a Special Response Unit in India that has primarily been utilised for counter-terrorism activities and was created by the Cabinet Secretariat under the National Security Guard Act of the Parliament in 1985. The act was in response to the 1984 Operation Bluestar; the advance of Indian military to remove Sikh separatists who had seized control of the Golden Temple. The operation involved a significantly large number of military combatants; casualties, numbering in few hundreds, also involved civilians. The temple also suffered heavy damages. The NSG commandos were first used to combat the insurgency movement in the Indian state of Punjab in 1985.

The NSG (also called Black cats) operates under the oversight of the Ministry of Home Affairs and is headed by the Director General of the Indian Police Service (IPS). Present Director General of NSG is Lt Gen Jyoti Krishan Dutt.

Recruitment is done from the Indian Armed Forces and other paramilitary forces.It is a complete deputational based structure. The NSG has a total personnel strength of about 14,500.
