Anil Paliwal assumes charge as BSF IG Rajasthan Frontier

IPS officer Anil Paliwal, who took charge as BSF Inspector General, Rajasthan Frontier today, said his focus would be on best coordination of man and technology for stepped up and effective surveillance along the Pakistan border in the desert state.
"I would focus on leveraging modern surveillance technology with better human resource utilisation for guarding the border," he said at the forces's frontier headquarter here.
He also emphasised on better coordination among the intelligence agencies along with proper and timely assessment and steps based on the inputs provided by the agencies to ensure strengthened surveillance on border and adjacent areas.

Referring to the scarcity of drinking water at the border out posts (BoPs) in Rajasthan Frontier, he said BSF will now resort to rain water harvesting to deal with the situation.
For this maximum utilisation of various government-run schemes for water conservation will be done, he said.
While talking to media, Paliwal said some work has been done to ensure availability of drinking water to the BoPs but still there are some parts on the border, where availability of drinking water is a big issue.
