Border Security Force has proposed a series of confidence building measures to Pakistan Rangers, including visits of school children to respective countries. BSF DG Subhash Joshi also proposed sector-level meetings at Amritsar and Lahore and sporting activities between the two border guarding forces as a part of the confidence building

programme. BSF DIG RPS Jaswal said, these proposals were made during a five-day bi-annual meeting between the BSF and Pakistan Rangers in Lahore.

While Mr Joshi led the Indian delegation, Pakistan Rangers (Punjab) DG Major General Khan Tahir Javed Khan led his team at the meeting.

Mr Jaswal said, the two sides also reached a consensus to utilise the available communication channels to check violations at the zero line. It was also decided that regular meetings between two border guarding forces, at all levels of command, will be held to ensure maintenance of peace and tranquility along the border.
