New Delhi: The Centre on Saturday gave additional charge of the Border Security Force (BSF) to DG SSB Daljit Singh Chaudhary until the appointment of a regular incumbent or until further orders.
The Centre on Friday removed BSF Director General (DG) Nitin Agrawal and his deputy Special DG (West) Y B Khurania, repatriating them to their respective state cadres with immediate effect.
This decision comes amid a spike in terror incidents and infiltration attempts in Jammu and Kashmir, especially in the Jammu region. According to data, 14 civilians and 14 security personnel have died, while 24 encounter/counter-terror operations and 11 terror-initiated incidents have been reported this year in J&K up to July 21.
