The Border Security Force (BSF) of India will now be equipped with high-technology electronics gadgets to strengthen ground-level security along the border of Bangladesh.
India shares a 4095 km-long border with Bangladesh-the longest being 2216 km with West Bengal. Ironically, part of the border is porous, riverine, and unfenced and exposed to frequent infiltration and skirmishes. BSF has put forward a proposal for acquiring a handheld thermal imager. The gadget, which is an advanced imaging device for low-light surveillance and security, would help in monitoring large areas in South Bengal through a centralized system even at night.
BSF has also decided to electrify the 1145 km-long fencing of the South Bengal Frontier in the East.
