"With the help of modern weapons and drones, it is with restraint and bravery towards the enemy's base, these 22 police commandos of Jammu Police have been made part of the recently formed Crisis Response Team," sources said.
They further added that till now, Special Operations Group commandos used to be involved in fighting terror in Jammu and Kashmir, but in view of many other responsibilities including law and order, narcotics, cyber-crime, 'Crisis Response Team' has been formed, which will be exclusively fighting against terrorism."
"Police have included 22 such youths into the team, who are focused only on their training. These commandos are not involved into normal policing and they spend most of their time in training.

"Along with search operations, the team of 22 commandos have also been given training in Jungle Warfare," sources said and added that along with this, they have also been equipped with many modern tools to prevent the natural factors such as inclement weather, darkness, climatic conditions or fog, so that they do not face any hindrance at the time of combat operations."
"One can imagine that these commandos are so focused and sharp that they take just five minutes of time to get ready and try for any counter insurgency operation," sources added and said, "in recent terrorist attacks in Jammu and Kashmir, most of the terrorists were hiding in residential house or buildings but these commandos of the 'Crisis Response Team' have also been mastered and trained to conduct operations in such situations and free any hostages from the clutches of the terrorists."
Sources also added that the commandos have also been trained of scanning across the walls with the help of special cameras used in combat operations while Jammu and Kashmir Police is also training them to catch terrorists alive during an operation.
"The commandos can also appeal to the terrorists to surrender through the speakers installed in the drones and hi-tech gadgets they are handling," sources added.
