New Delhi, July 11 (IBNS) Minister of State for Home Affairs Kiren Rijiju inaugurated the two weeks' BOP Training Module of Sashastra Seema Bal (SSB) through video conferencing here on Monday.

This Training Module is being conducted simultaneously at 270 Company locations in which personnel of 625 BOPs are participating.

Speaking on the occasion, Kiren Rijiju expressed his happiness that a new chapter has been added to the historic role of SSB.

He said that the country is getting security and peace due to services provided by the SSB and other security forces.

He further said that SSB has transformed into not only a border guarding force, but also a specialized force. The MoS also said that SSB provides various other services such as VIP security and services in LWE-affected areas.

Kiren Rijiju also said that the task of SSB becomes the more difficult in case of porous borders with some neighbouring countries like Nepal and Bhutan, where there is no fencing.

He said that he himself has personally visited BOPs and seen how SSB jawans work in diverse situation to protect the borders.

The SSB has come up as a fully professional force, he added. He also appreciated the SSB for their active role in social services also.
