of Police. Its main functions are to quell any widespread trouble
or disorder in the city which the unarmed branch by itself may not
be in a position to cope with. Other functions of this unit are to:
- provide guards for important Government offices, treasuries
and protected places.
- provide escorts for carrying arms and ammunitions and government
treasuries
- supply a striking force at Lalbazar Headquarters with a view
to render assistance to the unarmed branches
