Union Home Minister P. Chidambaram inaugurated this regional hub of the elite anti-terror National Security Guard (NSG) on 05/12/2011.The hub has come up at a cost of Rs.37.96 crore on 22 acres of land at Tirmulghery in Secunderabad, Hyderabad's twin city.

The decision to set up the regional NSG hub was taken after the terror attack in Mumbai Nov 26-28, 2008, with the aim to reduce response time and reach the area of operation as quickly as possible.

Though three regional NSG hubs were already functional at Mumbai, Chennai and Kolkata, the hub at Secunderabad is the first to have permanent infrastructure.
