Ahir said the government, in tandem with the state government, had adopted a multi-pronged approach to contain cross-border infiltration, which included strengthening of border management and multi-tiered deployment along the international border/Line of Control and near the ever changing infiltration routes and construction and maintenance of border fencing.

Replying to a separate question, MoS for home Kiren Rijiju said the government has decided to install modern anti-infiltration mechanisms on the border.

"In this regard, pilot projects of technological solutions in the form of comprehensive integrated border management system (CIBMS) have been approved for Indo-Pakistan and Indo-Bangladesh borders," Rijiju said. He added that sufficient funds were available for other pilot projects under CIBMS.

Rijiju further said this was basically an integration of manpower, sensor networks, intelligence and command and control solutions and included electro-optic sensors (high resolution day and night cameras), radars and other devices.
