Riot Gear  

Reports are coming in that a few bodies of Indian soldiers were mutilated in the Galwan Valley clash.
It is further reported that Indian soldiers at the border will be equipped with full-body riot gear to face any attacks.
 

Just days after Chinese troops killed Indian soldiers at the Galwan Valley, the Northern Command has begun equipping its soldiers with lightweight riot gear. The body protectors comprise padded polycarbonate inserts and protects wearers from, significantly, sharp objects and stones

IG Sreejith made it clear that they haven't given police's riot gear to women, but provided them with helmets and security shields to avoid violence in Sabarimala.
 

Opposition leader in Kerala Assembly Ramesh Chennithala said he failed to understand why one of the women was given a police riot gear while she was attempting to visit the shrine — when the law says anybody other than a police person wearing the uniform is a punishable offence
