After 2015, women commandos were also included in the Close Protection Team (CPT). Earlier, these security personnel were used only for advance deployment and were deployed for frisking of women guests meeting the PM.
Women commandos are usually posted at the Parliament gates to frisk women visitors and monitor entry and exit. Since 2013, women have also been inducted into the SPG's Close Protection Team (CPT). The first instance of women commandos in the SPG protecting a high-profile individual was in 2013 when two women were seen protecting former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh's wife Gursharan Kaur.
