ABOUT THIS EPISODE
ITBP chief Shatrujeet Singh Kapoor, speaking at the Himveer Sammelan in Alwar, highlighted continuing face-offs with China along the Arunachal Pradesh border. While these face-offs are not necessarily armed clashes, his remarks have sparked a row over border tensions and the government's handling of relations with Beijing. In episode 1924 of #CutTheClutter, ThePrint Editor-in-Chief Shekhar Gupta traces the evolution of ITBP, from its creation in the shadow of the 1962 India-China war to its present-day role. The episode also examines the significance of Kapoor's remarks, the modernisation of ITBP, including drone tech and Shuarya Commando units, and the broader strategic challenges of guarding India's Himalayan border with China.
