If it is it could possibly be connected to 10 Para (SF) - The Desert Scorpions.

Quote:
Known earlier as 10 PARA Commando (cdo) , 10 PARA was formed after splitting the "Bravo" Team of 9 PARA Commando to form a new Desert Warfare Unit on July 1, 1967 to carry out long-distance desert raids behind enemy lines paving way for Infantry Attacks in a similar way as the British SAS did in North Africa during World War-2. Based at Jodhpur, 10 PARA is now one of the most combat experienced units in Indian Army with a Detachment deployed in Kashmir for Counter-Terrorism and Counter-Insurgency Operations and an additional team in Delhi.

Some of the most notable operations by 10 PARA including the infamous Chachro and Islamkot Raid of 1971 which was led by Lt Col (Then) His Highness Bhawani Singh, King of Jaipur. 10 PARA has also contributed to multiple Counter Terror Ops in Kashmir for which it has won many accolades and distinctions.
