India has directed its Border Security Force (BSF) to use night vision devices and intensify its vigil on the border with Pakistan. A senior BSF official said that the force had deployed about 45,000 personnel along the Pakistani border from Gujarat to Kashmir. He said the BSF was also keeping its eyes and ears open. "We are in full vigil," he said. However, he said as the winter has set in, it has become difficult to make foolproof arrangement in some parts of Jammu and Kashmir. But the BSF has taken all measures to guard the border, the official maintained. |
