IG's MESSAGE
It is indeed a matter of privilege and honour to take over the command of prominent Meghalaya Frontier, which is the oldest BSF Frontier in the North Eastern part of India. It was established in 1971 and was assigned mandate for all the North Eastern states. However, at present, the Frontier looks after 444.8 Kms of Bangladesh border within Meghalaya state. The Frontier has distinction of encompassing forest, undulating ground and webs of rivulets. Our Bordermen surmount all these challenges with a determined mind and supreme confidence.
2. Since its inception, BSF has etched its history with unmatched sterling service to the nation, be it internal security, counter-insurgency or anti-naxal operations. We are mandated to prevent trans-border crimes, unauthorized entry into or exit from the territory of India, prevent smuggling, other illegal activities and promote a sense of security among the people living in the border areas. The professional approach and capability of meticulous execution of assigned tasks bestows the Force with the status of the first line of defence. BSF is defending our borders with courage and hard work, giving due respect to human rights and earning cooperation of border population.
