Jammu, Aug 16: BSF Inspector General N S Jamwal of Jammu frontier on Saturday said his force always remains prepared to face internal and external security challenges and take necessary measures to ensure the safety of border residents. Jamwal was speaking after hoisting the tricolour at Octroi Border Outpost on the outskirts of Jammu to mark the 74th Independence day. “For us, the internal and external security challenges remain always in our mind... the threat is always there, especially on the western border and the border residents do face a lot of trouble,” Jamwal said.
He said the border guarding force is doing its best to ensure that local residents feel secure. “Our effort is that the border residents also live a peaceful life like those living in other parts of the country,” the BSF officer said, adding the borders are safe and so are the people living in the close vicinity.
On the challenge posed by the outbreak of COVID-19, Jamwal said the BSF was successful in controlling its spread.
