With fog and haze engulfing areas along International Border (IB) in Jammu and threat of infiltration rising, Additional Director General of BSF’s Western Command Satish S Khandare reviewed the security situation along the International Border with Pakistan here, officials said on Wednesday.

In an official statement on X, the BSF stated “ADG BSF (western command) Satish S Khandare visited border areas in Jammu and was briefed on the operational aspects by the field commanders”.

The BSF, guarding the IB and parts of Line of Control (LoC), is on high alert as terrorists are trying to make desperate attempts to enter into the Indian territory. The high mountain reaches have received snow due to which the ultras may try to infiltrate through IB and other areas along LoC.

Inspector General of BSF, Jammu frontier, DK Boora and other senior officers received Khandare and accompanied him during his visit to the border areas in Jammu and Rajouri.

While talking to media, the ADG said the BSF is guarding the IB and parts of LoC with professionalism and alertness. “We are coordinating with J&K Police, CRPF and Army and dealing with the security threats in a professional manner,” he said.
