In a major breakthrough, the Border Security Force on Saturday detected an underground tunnel near the international border in Samba district’s Bengalad area in Jammu and Kashmir.
It is 25-feet deep and 150-metre long on the Indian side and some sandbags with markings –– ‘Shakkergarh’ and ‘Karachi’, both in Pakistan –– were also found. The nearest Pakistani post across the border was nearly 400 metres from the tunnel, they added.
The BSF has launched a major search operation to find out other such hidden structures that aid infiltration.
