Two photos are being shared to claim that there has been a massive improvement in gear provided to Indian army men during PM Modi’s tenure. The first photo is of a CRPF officer on duty while wearing basic protective gear such as a helmet and a vest, and he carries a baton (lathi). 

The second image is of a CRPF commando sporting advanced military tactical gear. Alt News found that while the first photo is indeed from 2012, the second image is from 2021 and is a photo of a Valley QAT commando, an elite wing that comes under the CRPF, and has been in operation for almost a decade.
