Applying for the mounted police involves meeting specific requirements, undergoing training, and demonstrating equestrian skills. Mounted police officers are responsible for patrolling on horseback, providing a unique perspective and enhanced mobility in various settings, including crowd control, search and rescue operations, and ceremonial events.
Mounted police units have a long history, dating back to the medieval era, and continue to be an integral part of law enforcement in many countries. They offer advantages such as increased visibility, improved crowd management capabilities, and the ability to access areas that may be difficult for officers on foot or in vehicles.
