India is planning to build impregnable defences along the borders with Pakistan in a project modelled after Israeli security mechanisms, according to highly-placed official sources.
OPERATION CHAKRAVYUH
Code-named Operation Chakravyuh, the project aims to plug any possible routes for terrorists to infiltrate into India, be it land, air or sea, top military and home-ministry sources told India Today TV.
Under Operation Chakravyuh, a network of highly-sensitive censors, radars, cameras, optical fibre and automatic guns will be laid along the Pakistan border, which will be linked to a round-the-clock control room they said.
RESEARCH UNDERWAY
Authorities have already done preparatory work for installation of detection devices underground and undersea, according to the sources. Six types of censors will be used in the border-securing scheme. To start with, locations have been identified in Jammu and Kashmir and Gujarat to induct equipment at every few kilometres as part of an initial project starting this month, defence and BSF sources said.
INITIAL PHASE IN J&K
The BSF will spend between Rs 18 and Rs 20 crore in Jammu and Kashmir alone for the initial phase of the overall plan, according to official documents accessed by India Today TV. Devices are being procured from several companies for the first round of the project. Radars with 360-degree detection capabilities will alert control rooms about potential infiltrations. There will be active cameras and subsequently there will be automatic guns to shoot intruders down on the spot, officials explained.
Similarly, large underground and undersea censors will beam scanned images of infiltrators back to the control room for swift response. Besides, airborne versatile micro-aerostat balloons fitted with highquality surveillance cameras along the borders will monitor the skies. All systems will be integrated together for coordinated action, sources said.
