Amidst reports of face-offs between Indian and Chinese soldiers in Arunachal Pradesh, the ITBP is enhancing its operational capabilities. The force plans to acquire approximately two dozen Quick Response Fighting Vehicles (QRFVs) to improve troop mobility and rapid deployment in challenging terrains. This move aims to bolster the ITBP's ability to respond swiftly to escalating tensions along the Line of Actual Control.
