Eelectronic surveillance system to be deployed on international borders | The Government on Tuesday said that it has decided to deploy hi-tech electronic surveillance system on the international borders. In written reply to a question
in the Lok Sabha, Minister of State for Home M. Ramachandran, said the hi-tech
surveillance equipments such as hand held thermal imagers, battle field surveillance
radars, long rang reconnaissance and observation system (LORROS), spotter scopes
and night vision devices have been deployed on the international borders of the
country to act as force multiplier for effective border management. Earlier on
December 1, on the same issues, Home Secretaries of India and Bangladesh had
discussed
cross-border terrorism, illegal immigration, smuggling of narcotics and militants
along the northeast border. India is optimistic about Bangladesh's support in
fighting militants, as the Sheikh Hasina Government has decided to fight both
terrorism and fanaticism more firmly. According to reports, it is not just the
northeastern insurgent groups, who have used international border with Bangladesh,
but Pakistan's ISI has also repeatedly taken advantage of the open borders between
India and Nepal and Bangladesh to infiltrate mercenaries. |
