You're a disease and I'm the cure.

The NSG (National Security Guard) and MARCOS (marine commandos) are the new brand ambassadors of India. While the politicians have been shooting their mouths off, the brave commandos have shot the terrorists. That is the difference between leadership and pseudo-leadership.

Hundreds of operations conducted by the MARCOS and NSG they have suffered very, very few casualties. The NSG in fact has lost only four commandos till date; of these, two, Major Sandeep Unnikrishnan and Havaldar Gajendra Singh died in the latest operation. The secret of minimal casualties with maximum results is the selection, training and preparation that these superheroes undertake.

The training of MARCOS personnel is a two year torture ordeal. Obstacle courses, diving, paradropping, shooting, navigation, explosives, ninja-style hand-to-hand combat, silent killing techniques, you name it and they are trained in all of it. Not just training; they are experts in every one of these domains

These special forces commandos are trained to kill the enemy: plain and simple; no talk, no discussion; just kill without mercy. Their reaction time to a threat is as low as 0.26 second!
The National Security Guards [NSG], established under the National Security Guard Act of 1986 (Act 47 of 1986), is India's premier counter-terrorist force.
NSG's specific goals include:
Neutralization of terrorist threats
Handling hijacking situations in air and on land.
Bomb disposal (search, detection and neutralisation of IEDs).
PBI (Post Blast Investigation)
Engaging and neutralizing terrorists in specific situations.
Rescue of hostages
Without doubt NSG-MARCOS is the new Indian super-brand. What does it convey about the product? Quality, service, dedication till death and beyond, total success and nothing less, the best training and preparation in the world, guaranteed delivery every time, honesty and integrity unsurpassed, complete reliability and finally, leadership that is the stuff of legend. This is a super-brand made entirely in India.
Let’s be proud of it, celebrate it, and live up to it!
