"We foiled four infiltration bids this year involving 13 infiltrators, of whom eight were neutralized by the Army and five were pushed back,” he added.
The IG BSF also warned of increasing narco-terror activities being pushed from across the LoC, describing it as “a greater internal threat aimed at targeting Kashmiri youth and funding terror.”
