I did recently hear about the Indian army Ghatak platoons, presumably platoons in infantry battalions with much-improved training, ambition and meant for difficult missions.
The concept reminds me a bit of the Kommandozüge of German Cold War airborne brigades (or battalions, I'm not sure), which are now understood to be predecessors of the KSK.
Do we have any Indians here who can shine some light on the Ghatak Platoons and their concept?
