The Frontier Force Regiment (commonly known as the Piffers) was officially raised on May 18, 1849 by Colonel Henry Lawrence.

The force was composed of five regiments of cavalry, the Corps of Guides (both infantry and cavalry), four mountain batteries, one garrison heavy battery, four regiments of Sikh infantry, six regiments of Punjab infantry and one regiment of Gurkha infantry.Today the Regiment stands out in all the professional fields and has truly rocked the enemy on many movements with the LABBAIK slogan.
