Ravi Gandhi, Additional Director General (ADG) of the Border Security Force (BSF) Eastern Command, conducted a comprehensive visit to Manipur this week. His visit was aimed at evaluating the security situation and reviewing the operational readiness of the BSF personnel stationed in the state.
Gandhi, accompanied by senior officers including Inspector General (IG) Akhileshwar Singh, undertook a detailed tour of the BSF company locations in Imphal East and Kakching districts. These inspections are part of a broader initiative to ensure that the BSF is well-prepared to handle any security challenges in the region.
During his visit, ADG Gandhi commended the BSF officers and troops for their dedication and efforts in maintaining law and order. He emphasized the importance of professionalism and vigilance in their duties, highlighting the critical role the BSF plays in the overall security framework of Manipur.
Gandhi also engaged in high-level meetings with senior state officials to discuss the current security scenario and the BSF’s contributions. These discussions aimed to enhance coordination between the state authorities and the BSF, ensuring a unified approach to addressing security issues.
In addition to assessing the security situation, ADG Gandhi’s visit focused on boosting the morale of the BSF personnel. He addressed the troops, encouraging them to maintain their high standards of discipline and readiness. His visit underscored the central leadership’s support and appreciation for the frontline officers and their continuous efforts in safeguarding the state.
Following his engagements in Manipur, ADG Gandhi is set to visit Nagaland to conduct further operational assessments. This tour of the northeastern states is part of an ongoing strategy to reinforce security measures and ensure that the BSF units are optimally equipped and prepared to meet regional security challenges.
The BSF’s role in Manipur is crucial, given the state’s unique security dynamics, including its geographical location and various socio-political factors. The BSF has been instrumental in managing the border areas and assisting local law enforcement agencies in maintaining peace and order.
This visit by the ADG of the BSF Eastern Command reaffirms the commitment of the BSF to uphold security and stability in Manipur, ensuring the safety and well-being of its residents.
