The Border Security Force has been put on high alert along the International Border in Jammu and Kashmir’s Akhnoor sector ahead of the New Year. Intelligence inputs warn of a possible infiltration attempt from Pakistan, with terror groups like Jaish-e-Mohammed and Lashkar-e-Taiba waiting at launch pads and potentially using dense fog as cover. The counter-infiltration grid has been strengthened, patrolling intensified, and all infiltration gaps plugged to foil any attempts.
