NEW DELHI: India will soon have smart fence on the Border Security Force (BSF) guarded international borders.
The BSF Director General, KK Sharma, said here on Wednesday while addressing the presspersons.
He said the smart fencing is to be done with the help of multiple censors installed near boundary and ” they are integrated in control room to get image or information of intrusion.”
He said a Comprehensive Integrated Border Managemen (CIBM) or smart fence is to be installed at Dhubari, Assam in the riverine area. “This project is going to be completed by October 2018 and will be done by our own resources”, said Sharma.
“We are good in research and technology,” he added. The BSF has also started a pilot project for smart fencing in Jammu region along with Pakistan border.
This has been done for a stretch of five kilometers and being done by a consortium of few companies and likely to be completed by March 2018, said DG.
