I have been reading all this and have been pretty amused by the reactions of all and sundry.
Let me first update these 'learned' people about the NSG commandoes. Commandoes are a special class of force who have been trained to operate in extreme, hostile conditions. They are trained to survive without food/water supplies just living off the land for over a week. They are capable of unarmed hand-to hand- combat and are trained in martial arts. They are a crack force and can use all kinds of weapons and of course have the world's most advanced small-arms fire power.
These are 'fighting machines' who are trained for combat and will DIE in their bid to protect or carry out any kind of warfare. Do any of you know the meaning of 'trained to die'??!! They will not flinch, and can come in the line of hostile fire if required.
This is the force which has been sent out to protect the 'men in blue'. Now if you are suggesting this is a waste of an exercise or maybe an overkill considering, general security could have been deployed then maybe you have a point.
But to say that THEY are going for a free trip to WI, maybe just too presumptuous!! These are men who will make the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty. I would give them this leash to take this 'free trip', if thats what you are all pained about. THEY DESERVE IT!!
Another theory would be a small force of NSG commandoes would be more effective than a whole battalion of para-military force so it becomes cheaper to send out this small team.
I can vouch for them and say that if they are assigned a task, it can only be a MAD suicide bomber (even he will find it tough) who could bridge this 'wall'. They will follow the assigned task to the 'T' ! No compromises, and so even if our dear men in blue, decide to slip out for a little party (a la Shoaib), they will not be able to do so, because the 'men in black' will ensure no such thing happens.
So rest in peace gentlemen and ladies; here are pros (for a change) who are out on a task. At least you could rest assured NOTHING will happen to our pampered lot of 'men in blue'....

A rejoinder: The NSG or 'Black Cat Commandoes' are the most elite force amongst the Commandoes in general. They are hand picked from the entire commando teams across the forces.....
