Top police and BSF officers, including the J&K DGP SP Vaid and IG BSF Ram Awtar, laid wreaths on his body in the headquarters of the Jammu frontier of BSF this morning.
Thereafter, Hazara’s body was flown to his native village Hat-Para in Murshidabad district of West Bengal.
A BSF officer said late on Wednesday evening mortar positions of Pakistan were identified and destroyed.
The BSF is maintaining extra vigil on Jammu border to negate intrusion attempts by miscreants aided by Pakistani forces. Firing across the IB is most of the time a diversionary tactic for facilitating intrusion of terrorists.
