History

Historical Context

The coordinated 26/11 attacks began on 26 November 2008, killing 175 people and exposing gaps in Mumbai’s security. In response, the Maharashtra government approved a dedicated anti-terror unit called Force One, ordered 36 speed boats, helicopters and city-wide cameras, and supported the creation of the National Investigation Agency under Prime Minister Manmohan Singh. These measures reshaped India’s counter-terror framework.
