Rajasthan News: The strength of the Border Security Force (BSF), which plays an important role in the protection of the country’s borders, is going to increase soon. The central government has approved 4,000 new recruits in BSF. This decision has been taken especially with the aim of strengthening security along the Pakistan border and preventing infiltration from across the border. Let us know that Rajasthan has the highest border area, so after being admitted in BSF, most of the soldiers will be deployed here.
This decision was taken after Operation Sindoor
According to sources, the Ministry of Home Affairs had sent a proposal to the Finance Ministry for approval of 15,000 new posts in BSF some time ago. The file was pending for a long time. Recently, during Operation Sindoor, BSF had given a befitting reply to Pakistan’s activities in the border areas from Jammu and Kashmir to Gujarat. In view of this excellent performance, the Finance Ministry has currently cleared the proposal of 4,000 new recruitments.
How many soldiers are in BSF?
- A senior BSF official said that the force currently has about 2.18 lakh personnel. The newly recruited soldiers will be mainly deployed on the western border, where infiltration, drone smuggling and other security challenges are continuously increasing.
- These new recruits will include various roles from constables, head constables to technical posts. Officials say that after completion of the recruitment process, selected soldiers will be trained in the use of modern weapons, surveillance equipment and advanced communication techniques. In addition, they will also get strategic and strategic training to deal with the changing situation on the border.
This big step in the country’s security strategy
- Experts believe that this decision will further strengthen the presence and response capacity of BSF on the Pakistan border. In recent years, there has been an increase in cases of sending weapons and narcotics through drones from across the border, due to which it has become very important to increase the vigil.
- This move of the central government is considered a major and positive change in the country’s security strategy. This will not only increase the strength of BSF, but the morale of the soldiers posted on the border will also be high.
