BSF detects yet another tunnel in the Pansar area of Hiranagar sector, between Border Post Number 14 and 15, ahead of Republic Day. The tunnel is around 150 metre long and 30 foot deep and it appears to be at least 6 to 8 years old. This is fourth such tunnel detected in the last six months.
A spokesperson of the BSF said that, It is pertinent to mention here that BSF had shot down a Pakistani Hexacopter carrying a load of weapons and ammunition in June 2020 in the same area.
He further added that, BSF troops had also foiled an infiltration bid in the same area in Nov 2019 wherein BSF troops had fired upon the party trying to infiltrate into India.
