Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann on Tuesday said that the State Government is fully sensitive towards checking cross border infiltration in the State. “Punjab Police is constantly in touch with the Border Security Force (BSF) and other agencies for this purpose,” said Mann on the sidelines of an event in Amritsar.
Mann reiterated the State Government’s firm commitment for snapping the pipeline of drugs and weapons from across the border. At the same time, Mann announced to chalk out a comprehensive blueprint for the state’s holistic development of the Border and Kandi areas.
The Chief Minister was in Amritsar to participate in a function organised by Bhagwan Valmiki Dhunna Sahib Trust to mark the birth anniversaries of Luv-kush and Guru Gyannath at Bhagwan Valmiki Tirath.
Bemoaning that both these areas have lagged behind in pace of development due to constant neglect by the previous governments, Mann said that AAP Government will lay major thrust on development of both these areas. A detailed plan will be chalk out for this purpose so that these areas get a major facelift in the coming times, he added.
