Following Union home minister Amit Shah’s recent visit to Siliguri, the director general (DG) of the Border Security Force (BSF), Daljit Singh Chaudhary, convened a high-level review meeting today with senior officials of the North Bengal Frontier.

DG BSF Mr Chaudhary was joined by Ravi Gandhi, additional director general (ADG) of the Eastern Command and Soorya Kant Sharma, inspector general (IG), along with other senior officials.

The cooperation and camaraderie between the BSF and BGB, as witnessed during the joint parade at Fulbari, are commendable. Both forces will continue to ensure the security of the border in all sectors.”
