I would like to ask you a very stupid question. You seems to be very knowledgeable person and Please dont take is offensively . Whose duty is it to protect the international borders ? Is it state police or Border security forces? And also an additional question about whom to central forces report to ? Is it the Government that rule stupid people of Bihar or government That rule Stupid Indians?
hmmm it seems that you are offended by my post and i am sorry if its so, coz that was never my intention.
Second, although its a BSF's job to patrol the border, its also the panchayats and state administrations job to make sure that there is proper markation of there jurisdiction area. Its the job of state forces to ensure if the the local farmers have valid land documentation then they are not bullied by the infiltrators. You know nepali border is different than the border at china, bangladesh border and pakistan border. If bsf fails in patroling such porous border then that does not mean state forces put there hands up and allow the infiltrators to do whatever they want and lay the blame on BSF. Even though its BSF's job to prevent the infiltrators, but its also the state govt's job to safeguard the rights and property of the state and its people from from infiltrators. If you know someone has broken into your house, you will punish your watchman later, but first you will make sure that nothing is stolen from your house and you will use all your resources in your house to keep the burglar from doing the damage.
It was navy's (or whatever force coz thats not the point) to prevent the terrorists from coming into mumbai and they failed. Then mumbai force came into action which also seem to fail and then NSG finally finished the job. Point is failure of one agency shud be covered up by the others but the objective must be achieved. In this case if BSF(actually its SSB there) has failed then its the job of panchayats, state and further acsending hierarchy to drive the infiltrators away.
And i have said it before and i will say it again, that what use is this open border for india. I dont see any use of it to india, infact its hurting india. Someone in other thread said that biharis use it for visiting the religious places accross the border. Well, thats not the sensible reason for keeping the border open as it has started to pose a threat to national integrity as well.
Let me get is straight. You are saying anybody who is qualified enough to get a job somewhere other that his/her native state and selects to work there is STUPID?
The point you are trying to bring has been done to death already. I braught it up in context of this news piece and i will like to keep it limited to that only.
I believe it has to be the collective effort to protect the national borders and resources within from any infiltrators. Its painful to see biharis loosing the land to nepali people, and arunachal people to chinese where as bengalie to bangladesh. We clap and cheer for billions of deal and ultra rich jets in other threads while we are loosing land in kilometers every where.
