Double the network of three new women police battalions.
“हम 3 नई महिला बटालियन के नेटवर्क का विस्तार कर उसे दोगुना करते हुए महिलाओं की सुरक्षा और भी सुनिश्चित करेंगे।”English: “We will expand the network of 3 new women battalions, doubling it, and further ensure women's safety.”
The verdict
As of Feb 2024 three women PAC battalions (Lucknow, Gorakhpur, Budaun) were in place and five other PAC battalions were being set up, not stated to be women's units. An Aug 2026 report still describes the same three as being completed. No evidence of six women battalions was found.
