The editorial
Source: The Hindu · 18 Nov 2023Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Friday said 168 villages along the China border that do not have any connectivity yet would be connected by road and other forms of communication in the next one year. He said the country’s security would suffer if border villages were emptied out due to migration and the vibrant village programme (VVP) would ensure that all facilities and infrastructure reached there. He said the country could not be safe without development of the border areas.
Mr. Shah was speaking at the 62nd Raising Day parade of the Indo-Tibetan Border Police (ITBP) in Dehradun on Friday. The ITBP is the primary force deployed along the 3,488-km China border.
