Sir,

Recently there was an article in one of Indian newspapers about the fence. As per the report, it takes about 6-8 minutes for the terrorists to breach the fence. The location is pinpointed by the sensors and apparently that time is enough for the Rapid reaction force to engage the intruders. It was stated that Fence helped in reducing the intrusion to a large extent.

I will try to find the article and post it. Unlike us, you were at the location and know much more about the efficacy of the fense.
