Director General of Border Security Force KK Sharma has said that terrorists are operating the training centre and launching pad across the Jammu-Kashmir border adjacent to Pakistan. Hundreds of terrorists are now trying to infiltrate into India but they will not be successful as BSF and all agencies are fully alert.

Apart from monitoring with the state-of-the-art equipment, the pilot project has been started to seal the border. On the question of terrorist attacks on Army camps, he said that the aim of the terrorists is to kill the army and the paramilitary forces and after that to die themselves. They have no fear, but the soldiers have the responsibility to defend themselves and take care of the security of their comrades and the country. “I am proud that our soldiers are in a very strong position and this has become clear from the terror attacks in the past.”

Sharma said that the entire BSF is being fully modernised and strengthened. He said that Rajasthan border adjacent to Pakistan is much safer than Jammu and Kashmir and Punjab borders. Right now, the threat of terrorists is low. He said that the Comprehensive Integrated Border Management System (CIBMS) is proving to be very effective on the border of Punjab and Jammu-Kashmir border adjacent to Pakistan and now Rajasthan border will also be equipped by this system.

Pilot project is currently underway in Jammu and Kashmir. The state-of-the-art equipment like infra-red alarms and thermal imager capture the picture of an intruder gets captured  as soon as he comes near the fence. Not only this, soldiers also get alerts by the alarm.

ROBUST & INTEGRATED SYSTEM 

  • The Comprehensive Integrated Border Management System (CIBMS) is touted as a more robust and integrated system that is capable of addressing the gaps in the present system of border security by seamlessly integrating human resources, weapons, and high-tech surveillance equipment.  The purpose of the CIBMS is to eventually replace manual surveillance/patrolling of the international borders by electronic surveillance and organising the BSF personnel into quick reaction teams to enhance their detection and interception capabilities.
