New Delhi: Home Minister Rajnath Singh on Friday inaugurated a high-tech control room of the BSF in the national capital which will integrate online data received from the field with 3D satellite imageries to enable real-time centralised monitoring of its operations.
"In the new system, the online data received from field formations are integrated with satellite imageries and projected on a three dimension wall for better assimilation and collation. The improved systems will enable control room to respond effectively," a statement from the ministry said.
Singh also launched BISAG (Bhaskaracharya Institute for Space Applications and Geo Informatics) project, which is a platform for satellite communication, working specially in Gujarat to establish a dedicated communication link with Border Out Posts (BOPs) for broadcasting welfare, administration and healthcare related programmes.
The Home Minister used this platform to directly speak to jawans on the border out posts.
Singh also launched a telemedicine project to connect with the BSF men deployed in far-flung areas on the frontiers where medical specialists are not available.
"Through this project, advice of super specialists from Delhi are made available there. The Union Home Minister was given a demonstration as to how patients and doctors are connected online," it said.
He also released a documentary 'A Soldier's Diary' on addressing the critical and sensitive issue of suicide of BSF Personnel.
