The Border Security Force (BSF) today said, security forces have been giving a befitting reply to every misadventure from Pakistan at the International Border and the Line of Control in Jammu and Kashmir.
Talking to media persons in Jammu today, BSF Director General KK Sharma said, the situation along the LoC and International Border is considerably tense due to ceasefire violations by Pakistan, but the Indian forces are prepared enough to meet any challenge.
He said, that keeping up the ethics of the force, BSF never resorts to ceasefire, yet any such attempt from across the border will be responded aggressively.
