Assam’s border security operations are being bolstered in response to rising cross-border crimes, including illegal immigration, smuggling, and insurgent activities. The state shares borders with several countries, which makes it vulnerable to illicit activities that disrupt public order and security. To address these challenges, the Assam Rifles, along with other law enforcement agencies, has been conducting regular patrols and surveillance to intercept criminals attempting to cross the border with illegal goods or engage in subversive activities.
The state’s border security efforts also focus on tackling illegal arms trafficking, human trafficking, and the smuggling of contraband goods like drugs and counterfeit products. Assam has worked in close collaboration with neighboring states and countries to enhance intelligence sharing and joint operations. The latest measures include the installation of surveillance drones, upgrading border infrastructure, and increasing the presence of border forces. These combined efforts aim to maintain peace and stability in the region, while also ensuring the safety of local communities and preventing criminal groups from exploiting porous borders.
