Internal security too complex

What is the significance of para-military forces in the national security apparatus?

The internal security problem has become far too complex. The involvement of external forces has made it dangerous in the sense that while Pakistan is helping terrorists in Kashmir, Chinese equipment and arms, which it denies, have been found with insurgents working in north east India. The state police force is not able to control situations like these and it is here that central assistance is need. Thus, the role of the paramilitary forces becomes very important. These forces are also involved in securing and guarding our borders. They are made to switch roles such as disaster relief, holding mega events, law and order and VIP security.

What does modernization mean for para-military and are they getting adequate support?
