Despite the challenging geographical conditions and inaccessible mangrove areas of the Sundarbans, the Border Security Force remains vigilant in protecting the country’s borders day and night.
BSF officers and personnel, along with forest guards and forest rangers from the Forest Department, local police, National Cadet Corps (NCC) cadets, local non-governmental organizations, village representatives, and local citizens actively participated in the program.
Children, in particular, showed great enthusiasm for this campaign.
During this Tricolor campaign, a clear synergy between national security and environmental conservation was evident.
The Border Security Force thanked the local citizens, all the officers, rangers, and ground staff of the Sundarbans Tiger Reserve, and all the personnel of the Hemnagar and Sundarbans Coastal Police Stations, and called for continued cooperation with the BSF in protecting the borders.
