The Home Minister, who is on the fourth and last day of his visit to Jammu and Kashmir, also announced that any civilian killed or injured in cross border firing with 50 per cent or more disability would be given monetary support of Rs 5 lakh.
He said: “For the last four days I have been visiting J&K. I went to Nowshera yesterday where thousands of people were present.
“I met BSF jawans and also those of the army there. After meeting the people in Nowshera, I have felt that these people are the strategic assets of the country. Their spirit and nationalism makes all Indians proud.
“Despite ceasefire violations, they continue to live at the borders. Their contribution in protecting the borders of the country is immense. Sixty safety bunkers have been constructed for border residents and more will be constructed.”
