Amit Shah Reviews Security Along India–Nepal Border, Stresses Crackdown on Illegal Activities

The CSR Journal Magazine

Union Home Minister Amit Shah led a comprehensive review meeting to evaluate security challenges in the districts along the Indo-Nepal border in Bihar. The session aimed at reinforcing border management and addressing emerging security issues in the area. Participants discussed the necessity for increased vigilance against illegal activities, emphasizing coordinated action among various agencies.

Concerns Raised Over Illegal Activities

Issues spotlighted during the meeting included illegal constructions in border regions, unauthorized migration, the spread of Fake Indian Currency Notes (FICN), encroachment, and unregulated financial transactions. The discussions underscored the importance of implementing robust monitoring systems and timely enforcement measures to mitigate these problems and preserve the integrity of the border.

Verification Processes for Death Records

Officials announced that following the completion of the Special Intensive Revision (SIR), all reported death cases would undergo a rigorous verification process. Upon confirmation, necessary updates and deletions will be executed in official records, such as UID databases, driving licenses, PAN records, and other relevant government documents. This step aims to enhance accuracy and prevent fraudulent activities.

Door-to-Door Surveys Initiated

A door-to-door survey is set to be conducted to verify individuals who have been reported as migrated but were absent during previous verifications. This initiative seeks to ensure that no legitimate voter is mistakenly removed from the records.

Zero-Tolerance Policy on Illegal Constructions

The Union Home Minister has mandated strict enforcement of a zero-tolerance stance against illegal constructions, particularly in forested and uninhabited regions. Immediate action is to be taken regarding the removal of encroachments identified on No Man’s Land to uphold the sanctity of the international border.

Increased Oversight for Financial Compliance

District Magistrates have been tasked with bolstering responsibility to ensure that all banks, including cooperative banks, comply with legal and financial regulations within their districts. All banking institutions are required to follow compliance directives issued by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), which encompasses reporting high-value cash transactions and ensuring the linkage of PAN with banking accounts. The Chief Secretary will oversee compliance to guarantee rigorous implementation.

Action Against Sub Registrar Offices

Strict measures will be enforced against Sub Registrar Offices (SROs) that fail to report or inadequately report high-value property transactions or cash transactions that surpass stipulated guidelines. The State Government will address this matter in the State Level Bankers’ Committee (SLBC) and advocate with the RBI for the deployment of note-sorting machines in all bank branches situated along the border.

Ensuring Transparency in Business Dealings

In addition, District Magistrates are assigned the task of verifying that major business establishments operate with legitimate financing sources and are not associated with illicit activities. Investigations into property purchases involving suspicious individuals will include thorough scrutiny of funding sources, purchasing capacity, and PAN information as part of enhanced oversight and enforcement measures.
