Smart Border Management

Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh on Monday left for Jammu and Kashmir to inaugurate two pilot projects of "smart" border fencing built under the Comprehensive Integrated Border Management System (CIBMS) programme.

India's first 'smart fence' pilot project, which entails deploying laser-activated fences and technology-enabled barriers to plug vulnerable gaps along frontiers, will be launched by Home Minister Rajnath Singh in two 5-km each patches along the Indo-Pak border Monday.

With the testing process already in final phases, the government today expressed hope that work on installing 'smart fence' along 3,323-km-long the Indo-Pak border will begin soon.

India's borders need much larger investment and attention, Jammu and Kashmir Governor NN Vohra said today as he batted for "smart border management" for people living along these areas.
