BSF all set to get makeover, digital camouflage pattern uniform for men

In response to a new tactic adopted by terrorists, wearing Army fatigues to mislead civilians and target security personnel, the government has decided to introduce a new digital camouflage pattern uniform for all ranks of the Border Security Force, the country's second-largest paramilitary force guarding India's borders with Pakistan and Bangladesh, officials said on Tuesday.

Incidentally, the decision to roll out the uniform makeover has come at a time tension between India and Pakistan escalated following the Pahalgam terror attack in which the terrorists were seen wearing Army fatigue.

The refurbished uniform, which includes both combat and daily wear, would soon be rolled out across all theatres of deployments both in the Eastern and Western flanks of India and also with those who are engaged in internal security duties, said officials.
