‘Ghatak’ troops are not Gurkha’s

A Ghatak Platoon, or Ghatak Commandos, is a reconnaissance platoon that is present in every infantry battalion in the Indian Army. Ghatak is a Hindi word meaning “killer” or “lethal”. Their name was given to them by Gen. Bipin Chandra Joshi. They act as shock troops and spearhead assaults ahead of the battalion

Their operational role is similar to Scout Sniper Platoons and STA platoons of the US Marine Corps,the Commando platoons of the British Army, Ranger Regiments of the US Army and the Commando Ranger Regiments of the Republic of Korea Army. They can also be referred to as Special Forces units especially Special Operations Forces
