Baby Chakraborty, KalimNews, January 28, 2025, Kolkata: In a significant move aimed at enhancing border security, the West Bengal government has approved the allocation of land for the Border Security Force (BSF) in the state. In a cabinet meeting held on Monday, the state government decided to provide 0.9 acres of land in Karimpur, Nadia, to the BSF. The land will potentially be used for the construction of an outpost, as well as for the necessary fencing of the border in the region.
Sources revealed that the BSF had informed the state government about the challenges they were facing in carrying out border security operations due to the lack of land. The force had communicated that without this land, they were encountering significant difficulties in completing their duties effectively. Following this, the matter was discussed thoroughly in the state cabinet meeting, which ultimately led to the approval of the land allocation.
Although the land in Karimpur has been approved for the BSF’s use, there has been no official response from the force on the decision yet. The move is seen as part of ongoing efforts to bolster security measures along the state’s borders.
