JAMMU, Feb 22: Border Security Force officers on Wednesday expressed strong resentment over a recently discovered cross-border tunnel on the International Border in Jammu region in a flag meeting with the Pakistan Rangers.
Official sources said that at a flag meeting held at Octroi Border out Post in Ramgarh sector of the International Border, the BSF expressed strong resentment over the discovery of a cross-border tunnel in the area of Samba district.
"Pakistan rangers completely denied that they had any hand in the issue. Both sides agreed on clearing the tall grass and bushes in the sector to help better vigil," sources said.
Troops of the BSF had last fortnight discovered a tunnel on the Indian side of the border, which had been dug from the Pakistan side.
