COMPARE...WHO'S BEST??????

SSG vs NSG
special service group vs national security guards

VS                   





& NSG both are well trained & well equipped but SSG is quite experienced and so is the NSG in Anti-terrorist & other operations.

While NSG has been conducting Anti-terrorist ops in J&K
most of which are classified. More over, SSG is a part of military while NSG comes under Home Ministry as a paramilitary force.


Something Unique to NSG:

Shooting in the Dark
Advanced training also covers 'combat room shoot' in which commandos have to enter a dark room, adjust their vision to the darkness and shoot at a target within three seconds by torchlight or a compatible laser image intensifier. Similar training is also conducted under discothèque strobe lights - conditions that are considered very difficult.

Operations:
SSG- 



1965 -
The first major deployment of the SSG came during the war of 1965. Around 120 officers and men were dropped on the night of 6/7 September near the Indian airbases of Adampur, Pathankot and Halwara in an ill-conceived operation to destroy Indian combat aircraft and put the bases out of action. Badly planned, lacking any solid intelligence, and even more badly executed the operation ended in a disaster.


1971 -
The performance of the SSG in the 1971 was much better despite Pakistan's surrender to India,with 1 Commando Battalion making a spectacular raid on an Indian artillery regiment and disabling several of their guns besides inflicting casualties.


Soviet-Afgan War -
During the Soviet war in Afghanistan, the SSG deployed there, disguised as Afghans and provided support to the Mujahideen fighting the Soviets. Author Aukai Collins, in the book My Jihad, gave the Pakistani infiltrators the title "Black Storks".They appear to have engaged the Soviet Airborne Forces in major battles such as the January 1988 Battle for Hill 3234 in which the Russians lost Six Spetsnaz soldiers, while Pakistani special forces lost 100 to 150 men in total. Another battle reported as having been fought between the Pakistanis and Soviet troops, in Kunar Province in March 1986, But the Russians claim that the battle have actually been fought between the GRU Spetsnaz's 15th Spetsnaz Brigade, and the Asama Bin Zaid regiment of Afghan mujahideen under Commander Assadullah, belonging to Abdul Rasul Sayyaf's faction.


NSG -



The National Security Guards (NSG) was raised by the Cabinet Secretariat under the National Security Guard Act of 1985 and has acquired considerable experience from the intense insurgency operations it has faced - from the present conflict in the state of Kashmir to the cradle of its birth, the state of Punjab. Adopting a variety of roles from counter-terrorism to hostage rescue to VIP protection, the NSG proudly wears the mantle of being one of the finest counter-terrorist units in all of Asia.

NSG is termed as one of the best SF in Asia, by the CIA.Overall, SSG can be compared better with the Indian Para SF. The NSG are better equipped.
