Sashastra Seema Bal celebrates its raising day

GUWAHATI, May 23: The Frontier Headquarters of Sashastra Seema Bal, Guwahati celebrated its 11th Raising Day on Friday at the Reserve Battalion in Sonapur with much gaiety and enthusiasm.

SSB Inspector General Guwahati Anil Negi, who was the chief guest of the program, addressed the gathering and lauded the role of the SSB as a border guarding force.

“The Frontier Headquarters of SSB Guwahati, mandated to the guard Indo–Bhutan border, has attained significant vigour in the national and security scenario through dedication and professionalism. During the last 7 years, the SSB has achieved significant results in countering anti–national elements, destruction of various forest products and wildlife. It has also played a significant role to enforce the sense of security and to save the lives and properties of citizens of the country by successfully countering the evil designs of anti–national elements,” Negi said.

He said that the SSB Frontier of Guwahati has so far apprehended at least 124 insurgents and other anti–national elements and also recovered large number of arms and ammunition.

“In addition to the normal role of border guarding, SSB has also been assigned with multi–dimensional responsibilities like election and law–and–order duties.” The Inspector General also remembered the martyrs who laid down their lives fighting for the nation and their role in building a strong Force.
