Confirming that he had sent a proposal to the Centre, Tako Dabi said: "Since eunuchs do not have families or any other emotional baggage, they will prove better warriors... Given a chance they will be better than a sepoy in the Indian Army."

"This is a way of bringing eunuchs into the mainstream. They can check goondagardi also if brought into the police, can prove better traffic managers too. Because of their build and height, they can be on VVIP duty," said Dabi.
