We perform the Becchi-Rouet-Stora-Tyutin (BRST) analysis of theFreedman-Townsend (FT) model of topologically massive non-Abelian theory byexploiting its (1-form) Yang-Mills (YM) gauge transformations to show theexistence of some novel features that are totally different from the resultsobtained in such a kind of consideration carried out for the dynamicalnon-Abelian 2-form theory. We tap here the potential and power of the"augmented" version of Bonora-Tonin's superfield approach to BRST formalism toderive the full set of off-shell nilpotent and absolutely anticommuting(anti-)BRST symmetry transformations where, in addition to the horizontalitycondition (HC), we are theoretically compelled to exploit the appropriategauge-invariant restrictions (GIRs) on the (super)fields for the derivation ofthe appropriate symmetry transformations for all the relevant fields. Wecompare our key results with that of the other such attempt for the discussionof the present model within the framework of BRST formalism.
