DGP Reviews Operational Preparedness and Future Roadmap of Greyhounds and OCTOPUS

 DGP CV Anand reviewed the operational preparedness and future readiness of the Greyhounds force during his visit to the Greyhounds Headquarters today. In view of the fact that Maoist activities have largely come to an end, discussions were held on the downsizing and restructuring of the Greyhounds and on determining the optimum strength required to effectively respond to any future internal security challenges.

The review also covered advanced training, capability building, modernization, infrastructure development, administrative support, and welfare initiatives aimed at further enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of the elite force.

Deliberations were held on future requirements and a strategic vision for the next five years to ensure that the Greyhounds remain agile, technologically empowered, and mission-ready at all times.

Following the review at the Greyhounds Headquarters, Sri CV Anand, along with DG Operations, visited the OCTOPUS campus at Ibrahimpatnam. During the visit, he interacted with officers and personnel, reviewed their operational functioning, training standards, and preparedness to respond to terrorism-related incidents and high-risk intervention operations.

The DGP also inspected various facilities and newly constructed buildings within the campus and reviewed the infrastructure available to the force.

DGP observed that Greyhounds and OCTOPUS are among Telangana’s most prestigious specialized forces and have earned recognition and respect across the country for their professionalism and operational excellence. He assured that both organizations would continue to receive the highest levels of support to further strengthen their capabilities and preparedness for future challenges.
