    Haryana Government to set up Anti-Terrorist Force 'Kavach'

    What's the story

    Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar today announced that the government will set up an Anti-Terrorist Force (ATF) comprising specially trained recruits from the State Police to deal with the present-day security challenges.

    "We've decided to set up an Anti-Terrorist Force. This force will be named 'Kavach'. Select Haryana Police recruits will be trained by the National Security Guard (NSG)," Khattar said in Gurugram.

    Why ATF?

    The idea is to be better prepared, clarifies Khattar

    Clarifying that the decision to form this force had nothing to do with any specific threat being faced by Haryana, the CM said, "Prevention is better than cure."

    "When attacks in Pathankot and Mumbai occurred no one knew about them... the idea is to be better prepared," he explained.

    The finer modalities for setting up the ATF are being worked out, the CM said.
