On 1 July 1966, a special unit was officially raised as the first special force battalion of soldiers with advanced skills. They use different and modern weapons from rest of the army and have no limits regarding code of conventional warfare. The base of Indian Special Forces was created by Major Meghdoot Singh during 1965 Indo-Pak war. He gathered some of the best men from different units and created a unit for a very special mission, the mission which turned the face of war for the Indian Army during the war. Later, the effectiveness of the unit was recognized by Indian Army and several similar units were raised back to back for different roles.
