Home Minister Amit Shah paid tribute to the Border Security Force (BSF) jawans who sacrificed their lives for the nation during a ceremony in Hazaribagh, Jharkhand. The BSF is the world’s largest border security force, with approximately 2.5 lakh personnel, and celebrates its foundation day on 1st December every year. Shah expressed his happiness to be present at the event and commended the bravery and dedication of the more than 1,900 border guards who have given their lives to protect the country. He assured them that the nation is proud of their service.
Naxalism is declining in the country, according to the Home Minister. He stated that efforts made in the last decade have resulted in a 52% reduction in violent incidents and a 70% decrease in fatalities. The number of Naxal-affected districts has decreased from 96 to 45, and police stations have reduced from 495 to 176. Shah emphasized the need for continued determination and courage in the final battle against Naxalism. The establishment of new camps and increased surveillance has led to a decrease in their numbers, and many areas have been freed from their influence.
During the ceremony, Amit Shah also mentioned the improvements in Jammu and Kashmir and the Northeast region. He attributed these positive changes to the efforts of the BSF jawans. Shah expressed his gratitude to the jawans for their contribution to these regions’ progress. The Home Minister’s speech highlighted the ongoing fight against Naxalism and the government’s commitment to ensuring the safety and security of the country.
