Security at all 17 police stations in this border district has been tightened, a senior police officer has said, a move that comes in the backdrop of the Pathankot airbase attack.
Superintendent on Police Rajeev Pachar yesterday said that an additional guard will be posted at the entrance of every police station that has been so far manned by one sentry.
These sentries will be armed with SLR rifles, he said.
The police stations here generally keep revolvers and rifles but soon they will be armed with LMGs, he said.
Suspected Pakistani spies were nabbed from Jaisalmer recently.
