Govt to replace Assam Rifles with BSF on Myanmar border

A decision in this regard has been pending for many years after the GoM on Kargil advocated the theory of ‘one border, one force'.  

The new proposal entails the country's second largest paramilitary force to create posts right on the border as compared to AR posts which are much inside.  

India's border with China is guarded by another force ITBP while the borders with Nepal and Bhutan are guarded by the Sashastra Seema Bal (SSB).
