Women in SPG: Responsibilities and Roles

The SPG inducted women into its elite security force in 2015. Women commandos perform critical duties, including:

• Advanced Deployment: Deployed at Parliament gates for frisking female visitors.
• Close Protection: Surveillance and escorting female guests meeting the Prime Minister.
• Foreign Assignments: Participating in Advance Security Liaison (ASL) during the PM’s international trips.

At present, around 100 women serve as SPG commandos, contributing to close protection and advanced security arrangements.
