Defence minister Rajnath Singh inaugurates 75 BRO projects in forward areas

The infrastructure, including roads and bridges, will significantly boost military mobility and logistics support for deployed forces in forward areas.

Singh, who virtually inaugurated the projects from Sukna in West Bengal, said the projects were a testament to the government’s unwavering resolve to further strength border infrastructure and ensure socio-economic progress of these areas.

“India will be one of the safest and strongest nations in the times to come,” he said.

The development comes amid China’s unrelenting infrastructure push along the India border during the last five years.
