Amritsar, November 26: As winter approaches and fog begins to engulf the India-Pakistan border, the environmental conditions are becoming ideal for Pakistani smugglers to attempt infiltration and push in drugs, arms, and ammunition.
Foiling such bids at three different BOPs in Punjab's Pathankot and Amritsar sectors on Friday night, the Border Security Force (BSF) has stepped up vigil all along the international border.
