Jaisalmer: In the wake of the recent terrorist attack in Pahalgam, a high-level security review meeting was held late Thursday evening in Jaisalmer to assess the prevailing situation and reinforce coordination along the Indo-Pakistan border.
Senior officials, including BSF Rajasthan Frontier IG M.L. Garg, Jodhpur Range IG Vikas Kumar, BSF DIG Sector North Yogendra Singh Rathore, Jaisalmer district magistrate Pratap Singh, and SP Sudhir Chaudhary, attended the meeting along with officers from the Indian Army, Air Force, and intelligence agencies.
The session focused on enhanced vigilance, intelligence sharing, and joint patrolling in sensitive areas. Agencies discussed measures to bolster synergy among the BSF, Army, state police, and intelligence units. Upgrades to Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for border management and internal security were also reviewed.
Following the meeting, top officials visited forward posts along the Tanot-Longewala stretch of the international border, assessed ground-level preparedness, interacted with field personnel, and reviewed ongoing surveillance and response measures.
The border remains on high alert amid rising India-Pakistan tensions. Patrolling has been intensified, and the Indian Army and Air Force remain on standby in forward areas to counter any threats to national security.
