The Border Security Force (BSF) detained 21-year-old Pankaj Kashyap near the international border in Rajasthan’s Jaisalmer district on November 16, 2025. Kashyap, a resident of Shahjahanpur, Uttar Pradesh, was intercepted during a patrol near the canal area under Mohangarh police station limits after exhibiting suspicious behavior close to the sensitive frontier. Preliminary questioning indicated he was attempting to cross into Pakistan, raising concerns about border security and potential intelligence risks. Kashyap has been handed over to local police and is slated for detailed interrogation at the Joint Interrogation Centre to ascertain his motives and any larger threat implications. This incident highlights the ongoing vigilance and operational readiness of the BSF amid heightened Indo-Pak tensions over border infiltration and security breaches. It underscores India’s strategic focus on safeguarding territorial integrity in a sensitive corridor prone to cross-border threats.
