The Union Home Minister Shri Rajnath Singh has lauded the role of Border Security Force (BSF) as the first line of defence for the country. Speaking at the 49th BSF Day Celebrations here today, he said that BSF jawans have been giving a befitting reply whenever Pakistan violated ceasefire. Shri Rajnath Singh said that when Pakistan recently violated the ceasefire, BSF dealt with it in the utmost restraint manner, but when provoked with frequent ceasefire violations, the response by the BSF men was commendable.
