Security Forces on High Alert Along Jammu & Punjab Borders Following Terror Threat
Security forces have ramped up vigilance along the International Border in Jammu and in the frontier districts of neighbouring Punjab following intelligence inputs about potential terrorist infiltrations from Pakistan.
After heightened security measures in Jammu, Samba, and Kathua districts of the Jammu region, the Border Security Force has extended the high alert to Punjab’s border regions.
The alert comes amid dense fog conditions expected to persist for at least a month, providing cover for such attempts, especially as New Year’s Eve approaches.
According to the input, terrorists camping on the Pakistani side may shift their infiltration routes to Punjab, exploiting the thicker fog in areas like Pathankot and Gurdaspur, which border Kathua in Jammu.
Additional deployments have been made along the IB in Punjab, particularly in Gurdaspur and Pathankot, to counter any attempts by terrorists to cross over. Searches are being conducted in various border zones.
Recent inputs indicate a group of three to four terrorists positioned close to the International Border are waiting for an opportunity to cross over amidst intermittent fog. Behind the frontline BSF personnel, Border Police, Special Operations Group (SOG), and Village Defence Guards (VDGs) are on heightened surveillance, particularly at night when infiltration risks are higher.
However, the damaged fencing and border posts from August’s monsoon floods in Jammu-Kathua and Punjab sectors have been fully repaired and reconstructed.
