Another officer said that police in most of the European countries have started using such batons. "This upgradation is a commendable step," the officer added.
The new batons will be easier to carry and hold for police personnel as well since they are required to stand for hours sometimes under the hot sun at 45 degrees Celsius.
"These batons are available in different sizes, diameter and length and are made to order for police and paramilitary forces," a manufacturer told IANS.
"The normal size of these batons is between 30 and 40 inches," an officer said.
