GUWAHATI: Director-General of Border Security Force (BSF) Ranjit Sekhar Mooshahary on Sunday said that a new-design double-layered barbed wire fence is being erected on the entire stretch of the Indo-Bangladesh border and would also replace the existing single-layered barbed wire fence in Assam by 2006. Briefing presspersons after visiting Megahalya-Bangladesh and Tripura-Bangladesh sectors of Indo-Bangladesh border, the BSF Director-General said the new fence would be more durable and would be difficult to breach. Work was in progress and about 40 per cent of border fencing work is yet to be completed. The electrification of the fence along the Indo-Bangladesh sectors of Assam, Meghalaya and Tripura was also under consideration. The work, however, might be slowed down during the monsoon.
