They had attacks important palces like Hotel Taj Mahal Palaces and Tower, Oberoi Tridents,Leopad Cafe, Nariman House.They were highly trained by the pakistani intelligence ISI and Lashker-e-Taiba to how to stay alive during operations. The Inquiry committe stated that it was "war like " situations and was beyond the capacity of police force.
One can imagine their training that India had to call their best commandos NSG and MARCOS for rescue operation. before inclusion of commandos mumbai police tried their best to rescue the hostages and to secure the city.During operations they lost their officers like ACP Ashok Kamte, Inspector Vijay Salskar,ATS chief Hemant Karkare,ASI Tukaram Omble, were martyred .
During NSG operations in Hotel TAJ 2 NSG commandos were also martyred. They were Maj. Sandip Unikrishann and Hav. Gajendra Singh.
Only one militant Ajmal Kasab can be captured alive by the security force .This led the pakistani authority on the back foot.
