Assam Rifles embraces Krav Maga to boost combat readiness

August 09, 2025 | BK News Service

In a significant initiative to enhance close-combat capabilities and physical fitness, the brave troops of the Assam Rifles under Spear Corps have begun intensive Krav Maga training across battalions under a ‘Train-the-Trainer’ programme.
Krav Maga, a renowned Israeli self-defence system, is known for its focus on real-world situations, quick reflexes, and neutralizing threats with maximum efficiency. Its adoption marks a transformative step in preparing Indian soldiers to face modern-day challenges both in combat and counter-insurgency operations.
This specialized training capsule, involving selected troops from various units, aims not just to improve individual combat skills but also to create in-house instructors who will later train personnel across battalions. The initiative emphasizes sustainability and internal capacity-building within the force.
Key Objectives of the Krav Maga Training Programme:
Enhance close-combat preparedness and reaction under pressure.
•Promote physical fitness and agility among troops.
Build mental resilience and situational awareness.
Establish a force-wide culture of self-defence and tactical readiness.
Officials believe the integration of Krav Maga will significantly benefit troops stationed in high-risk zones where quick, decisive action is crucial.
"This programme is not just about learning self-defence; it's about building confidence, fostering discipline, and ensuring that every soldier is physically and mentally prepared to handle any threat," said a senior official associated with the training.
The Assam Rifles, often referred to as the 'Sentinels of the Northeast', have long been at the forefront of internal security operations and counter-insurgency efforts. With the induction of Krav Maga, they are now adding a modern and globally recognized combat skill to their already robust training arsenal.
This initiative reflects the evolving nature of military preparedness in India, blending traditional strength with modern techniques to create multi-skilled, adaptable warriors ready for 21st-century security challenges.
