While I appreciate the visit, I hope they also focus on improving basic facilities for jawans posted in remote areas. My cousin served in BSF and told me about the challenges they face with infrastructure. The government should allocate more funds.

Tripura border is very sensitive due to illegal infiltration issues. Glad to see senior officers taking personal interest. But why no mention of modern surveillance equipment? Drones and tech solutions can help reduce jawans' workload.

As someone who visited Tripura last year, I saw firsthand how challenging the terrain is. The BSF personnel deserve better recognition and pay for their service. The state government should also involve local communities in border security awareness programs.

Good initiative! But these visits should be more frequent and not just when there's media coverage. Our border forces need continuous support and resources. Also, hope they discussed the recent smuggling incidents in the area.
