On the heels of Uri attack, the Indian government is looking at alternatives to send out a strong message to the Pakistan government. The Narendra Modi government has green-signalled the recommendations of a high-powered committee that stressed on the use of upgraded technology to strengthen security along India's 3,323km border with Pakistan. According to reports, the panel constituted to study possibilities for enhancing security has urged a grid-based system along the border, wherein, at vulnerable stretches, the Army's and the BSF's ground troops would be assisted by hi-tech equipment, including satellites for surveillance, as well as the intelligence agencies and the police forces of the four states. Whenever an instance of infiltration is reported, a particular component of this grid would respond, said reports. India's border with Pakistan runs through four states, Jammu & Kashmir (1,225km, including the Line of Control), Rajasthan (1,037km), Punjab (553km) and Gujarat (508km). Apart from smart fencing, the committee has recommended the use of water, electronic as well as underground sensors, besides camera surveillance. Plans to create access roads for troops have also been suggested.
