The man who taught Greyhounds the nitty-gritty of jungle warfare, shaping it as an elite commando force in the country, passed away here on Tuesday.
Ninety-two-year-old N.S. Bhati served Greyhounds as a consultant for nearly four decades and retired last year on health grounds. He was instrumental in shaping Greyhounds which eventually became a role model for other security agencies in the country.
He served as Sashastra Seema Bal (SSB) earlier and played key role in gathering intelligence in that unit. After retiring as Deputy Inspector General, he was picked up by IPS officer (late) K.S. Vyas to train Greyhounds force.
