ITBP to deploy more intelligence officers along India-China border

In a strategic move, the Centre has allowed the establishment of intelligence posts of Indo-Tibetan Border Police (ITBP) along the India-China border. ITBP is prepared to deploy a team of intelligence officers across the border from Ladakh to Arunachal Pradesh. This will help in enhanced surveillance and increased information-gathering capabilities. China has heightened its activities along the border. Each post will have 4-5 Intelligence Bureau officers. The deployed personnel will work in coordination with the Indian Army, ITBP, National Technical Research Organization, Intelligence Bureau and Research and Analysis Wing (RAW).
