During this, the team of News18 India also became a part of the brave patrolling team of BSF, which protects the Indian borders in the midst of dangerous waves. During this patrolling, jawans were also talked to, in which they told that ‘Fishermen often enter India from Pakistan’s side, we always keep an eye on them’.

Coastal security most important for the country
