The authors study the spinning particle interacting in a supersymmetric and gauge invariant way with anti-symmetric non-Abelian tensor fields. In this paper a quantum theory is presented. The authors calculate the Witten index for the corresponding Dirac operator and conclude that the anti-symmetric non-Abelian tensor fields do not give nay contribution to it.
