Indian para military work under extremely difficult geographical and climatic conditions where temperature ranges from 47 degree celcius to minus 47 degree celcius. Unlike Army, they don’t get martyr status and less compensation in case of death or disability. Their weapons are poor as compared to Army and spend long border patrol duties. An ITBP (Indo-Tibetan Border Police) platoon may undertake 10 or 21 days isolated patrol at high altitude Tibet border and if they face Chinese PLA platoon, things become ugly with pushing, jostling and sometime trading punches. BSF (Border Security Force) platoon moves 10-15 KM north or south along the border alternate days in Rajasthan desert or riverine Bengal plains but mostly fails to prevent smuggling of men, material, narcotics, fake currency and cow. CRPF faces constant naxalism violence. But next 5 years (2019-2024) could be turning point for para military forces.Learning from the Doklam experience, the ITBP will soon have an air wing primarily for reconnaissance so that transgressions by the People's Liberation Army (PLA), troop build-up and construction activities across the border can be spotted in time. For this, two twin-engined helicopters are being procured, which will be used for transportation of combat troops, evacuation of dead, injured and sick jawans, supplying rations and flying VIPs at altitudes of 16,000-18,000 feet in the Himalayas. ITBP helicopters will operate from its bases in Chandigarh and Borjhar (Guwahati), covering almost the whole 3,488-km-long border with China, from J&K to Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand and the northeast region, including Sikkim. The process to acquire the helicopters on wet lease has been initiated. The helicopters will have several features to meet operational exigencies at high altitudes and reach forward locations. The twin-engine helicopters will be able to transport 8-10 troopers on a single trip, carry arms/ ammunition/ explosives to forward locations, fly for two hours without refuelling, have night flying capability and special features for slithering of troopers and dropping of rations. UAV or drones can also keep a tab on Chinese transgressions. India is one of the fastest-growing markets for UAVs, and one of the top UAV importers for military purposes worldwide, says a report. According to global market intelligence and advisory firm BIS Research, by 2021, the Indian UAV market will reach USD 885.7 million, while the global market size will touch USD 21.47 billion. The report noted that customer-focused innovation in UAV technology and the rise in demand for UAVs for surveillance, civil, and commercial applications from global markets will drive this growth. "For India, growth in both military and commercial applications, great market potential, and growing adoption. The market for commercial end-users in India will supersede the military market in the country by 2021, and the cumulative market in India will hit USD 885.7 million by 2022.The technological advancement in UAVs and the demand for multi-functional UAVs have pushed manufacturers to invest heavily in the research and development of cost-effective and feature-rich UAVs. Indian companies such as AUS, IdeaForge, and Quidich are either already manufacturing or operating UAVs for customers. "The market for UAVs is largely dominated by non-commercial end-users, due to the high prices of UAVs used in defence applications. However, relentless and fast-paced development of commercial end-users is aiding in the creation of more cost-effective and feature-packed UAVs, pushing open the floodgates in this sector."Realising the need to have smart barriers to check intrusion from Bangladesh and Pakistan, ministry of home affairs (MHA) is setting up a space and technology cell. The cell is expected to improve border management and help in operations. ISRO and DRDO officials will be deputed to run the cell which would be set up within home ministry’s Border Management Division. This is one of the new initiatives of the ministry which home secretary is reviewing for expeditious implementation in consultation with ISRO and DRDO. The ministry has identified areas where space technology could be leveraged to put a check on suspicious activities around the 15,106.7 km land border and 7,516.6 km coastline with seven countries. A task force constituted by home ministry under had submitted a confidential report in September 2018 to secretary (space) and ISRO chairman which has somewhat become the template for harnessing space technology for border management and operational purposes too.The Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) is all set to purchase 25 high-end drones to equip itself to better conduct anti-Maoist operations and deal with militants in Jammu and Kashmir. The tendering process for the procurement of the drones has started and they are expected to be introduced by the CRPF - the country's largest paramilitary force - in the next three-four months. A pre-bid conference for the procurement of the drones was held on 12 September, 2017, and the online and offline tender was opened on 26 October, 2017, with a validity of six months. These drones - each costing around Rs 15 lakh - are being purchased to help the CRPF personnel during surveillance, reconnaissance and detection in day and night operations in Jammu and Kashmir and in the dense forests of Maoist-hit states like Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra. The 25 new drones will join CRPF's existing fleet of 40 and help the force get real-time inputs and avoid attacks on its troopers."The drones will have the capacity to integrate geo-referenced master maps -- provided in at least one of the commonly used digital map formats - with real-time and clear video during flights at heights of around 250 metres. They will also have better quality zoom control and thermal imaging for night operations," as per CRPF official. New drones would be able to detect human-sized targets at 300 metres or more and have additional features when compared to the CRPF's existing Indian-made light drones, named "Netra". "These drones will also comprise a ground control station with data link equipment, daylight camera payload, night camera payload, universal battery charger with power supply system.”The move is part of CRPF focus on better equipping the force and improving its surveillance infrastructure to minimise casualty in maoist areas. The tender, issued on August 25 2017 year invited an "online global tender" in a two-bid system for the supply of 25 micro Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAVs). The tender seeks a two-year guarantee from the manufacturers, who have to supply the drones within 90 days of winning the contract. Training of 75 CRPF personnel to handle the drones and minor repairs at the 4 Signal Battalion of the force in Neemuch, Madhya Pradesh, are part of the conditions laid down in the document. The over 300,000-strong CRPF is mandated to provide internal security in Jammu and Kashmir and Maoist-affeted areas.CISF (Central Industrial Security Force) plans to patrol in airports or metro stations with factory-built robotic canines/dogs. These robotic canines can not only sniff out cocaine or explosives potential and bomb threats (using electronic sensors) but also conduct X-ray scans of the passenger luggage with their electronic eyes on the fly. Robots are already tasked with functions like conducting security checks or offering passenger information at airports in Japan, South Korea, Canada and the United States, among others. CISF takes care of high value economic and industrial property of Indian government like Metro Rail, airports, Nuclear power plants, government offices, ministry and PSU (public sector unit) banks, offices and factory etc.BSF arrests Indian & Bangladeshi cattle smugglers. Bangladesh border is porous and that cannot be sealed by building tall wire-fence.The BSF said in a statement in Shillong on 23rd July 2017 that they seized 276 cattle and contraband items worth more than Rs. 49 lakh while being smuggled out of India to Bangladesh at the zero line of the Indo-Bangladesh border in Meghalaya during the past five days. However, no arrests could be made as the smugglers fled in jungles. The seizures were made Tuka, Nayabazar and Lyngkhat in East Khasi Hills district, at Gopinathkilla village in South West Garo Hills, at Ganganagar village in West Khasi Hills and Dumkaphal village in South Garo Hills. The smugglers cut fencing wires or used unfenced areas to smuggle cattle, the statement said. This kind of news appear regularly in media. Many parts of the international border are still unfenced in Meghalaya. Underground tunnels were also detected in Bangladesh border.The BSF deployed UAVs and erect a 'smart fence' to check smuggling and infiltration from across the most notorious riverine and porous gaps along the India-Bangladesh border by next year. Union home ministry had approved a proposal of the force to deploy an indigenously developed smart fence at the 48.12-km-long riverine Dhubri border area along the Brahmaputra river in Assam. The smart fence will detect illegal human or cattle movement with the help of infra-red rays. The control room will get alerted by satellite-based signals in case of a breach followed by a response by a quick reaction armed team of the force, he said. At present, BSF troops on boats guard this Dhubri patch which is highly prone to illegal migration and cattle smuggling due to the changing course of the river. No permanent structure like border posts can be erected in this area. In last four decades, demographic profile of lower Assam has changed completely due to rampant illegal immigrations supported by vote bank politics. Lower Assam districts like Dhubri, Kokrajhar, Goalpara, Bongaigaon etc. have seen huge increase in population that led to Army chief Bipin Rawat commenting that demographic change in Assam is part of China-Pakistan conspiracy to destabilize north-east region. Theincrease in Muslim population in several districts of Assam, and rise of Badruddin Ajmal-led AIUDF (All India United Democratic Front) in the state, is a growth that is "faster" than that of the growth BJP in the 1980s. The statement created controversy as army chief should not speak about politics. But everybody should realize the depth of the problem. Assam was on fire in early 80’s due to illegal influx problem. Thousands of building, road bridges were burnt by local population opposing the illegal influx. Later these people formed milltant organisation for separate Bodoland state and outright separation of Assam from union of India by separatist ULFA (United Liberation Front of Assam). This led to Assam accord in mid 80’s and a new party AGP (Assam Gana Parishad) consisting of mostly students agitating against illegal influx came to power. But in absence of technology, illegal influx continued. Now Indian government seems to have a political will and technology to prevent illegal influx.The BSF has also urged home ministry to sanction the raising of five more battalions (about 5,000 personnel) and their deployment along this border region to check crimes like smuggling of cattle, fake Indian currency notes, arms, ammunition and narcotics in some of the "most vulnerable and notorious areas. Cattle smuggling on Bangladesh border is also gradually coming down. The figure of cattle smuggling stood at over 20 lakh cattles a few years back but this was now only about five to six lakh, as per BSF officials. Indian government wants eliminate cattle smuggling to zero and that can be done only with smart monitoring using smart fence and drones. A BSF platoon of 15 foot soldiers generally walk 15 KM along the fence in one direction and comes back by night. So they travel 30 Km a day under extreme heat, humidity, rain or mosquito infested jungles. Next day the same platoon goes to the other direction along the fence and completes 30 KM daily duty of patrolling the border. But does this daily hard work prevent illegal influx or cattle smuggling? Certainly not. Smugglers and infiltrators know when BSF troops will may patrol the area and they do their illegal activity few hours before or after BSF troop visit the area. So, a 24x7 areal or sensor based monitoring can prevent illegal influx and cattle smuggling. Areal monitoring can be done by helicopter but that is a costly solution. Ideal solution is drone which can stay float 24 hours with night vision capability. Along with drones, smart fence with camera trap (like camera traps used in forests where camera takes picture only when it sences some movement), passing electricity through fence (called cobra fence) and vibration detection device (to prevent underground tunnelling). A fifty KM ‘no cow zone belt‘ should be made along entire Bangladesh border as corrupt politicians, BSF personel, transporter are part of cow smuggling gang which has become any industry in this border.Tunneling is a serious concern in the Indo-Pak border areas also, especially in Jammu region, for smuggling of contraband and arms. Occasionally Lashkar and Jaish terrorists also enters India using tunnels. A study by AIIMS has found that opioids worth Rs 7,500 crore are consumed in Punjab every year. Of these, heroin's share is a massive Rs 6,500 crore. This is a startling revelation given that almost all the heroin that comes to Punjab is through the Pakistan border, pumped in by smugglers allegedly aided by ISI. It is this smuggler network that the terrorists who attacked the Pathankot airbase are believed to have used.Drug-sniffing dogs, deployed for the first time in Punjab to check transportation and distribution of drugs ahead of Assembly polls, have helped the law enforcement agencies to recover 58 kg of poppy husk. Apprehending distribution of drugs by political parties to lure the voters, the Election Commission had ordered police to deploy 22 sniffer dogs at prominent places including inter-state borders, railway stations, bus-stands to check the movement of narcotic substances in the poll-bound state.With the arrest of Punjab Police inspector Inderjit Singh on the charges of drug trafficking, the nexus between politicians, police and drug traffickers has surfaced again and again. The Punjab Special Task Force arrested accused police inspector on the charges of drug trafficking and seized a huge cache of drugs, arms and ammunition from his Jalandhar Police Lines house and his Phagwara house. “The police seized 7kg of narcotics, including 4kg of heroin, an Italy-made .9 mm pistol, live cartridges of various calibers and Rs 16.50 lakh cash.” Inspector Inderjit, close to many high-police officers, was famous for catching large quantities of drugs. Regularly drugs are detected by pilice and BSF which embarrasses the state government.Punjab’s government and police say the answer lies at the 553-km-long international border with Pakistan and blame the Border Security Force (BSF) for not doing enough to curb drugs smuggling. The BSF says it’s caught in a “catch-22” situation and that only a minuscule amount of drugs found in the state comes from across the border.Border farmers in Punjab should be rewarded as many of them are aware of smuggling activity but keep quite as drug lobby consists of extremely big and powerful people.Amid the blame game, the findings of an investigation by an Indian media, with figures obtained under the RTI Act from 14 of Punjab’s 28 police districts of drugs seizures, map a clear drugs trail that starts from the border and seeps into the hinterland. The BSF’s haul of heroin at the Punjab border was 67 kg in 2011, 288 kg in 2012, 322 kg in 2013, 361 kg in 2014, 344 kg in 2015.The Border Security Force (BSF) has flagged concerns over increasing radicalisation of Muslim population in the border district of Jaisalmer in Rajasthan with rising prevalence of "Arab customs" and increase in Muslim populations, reduced communication between Hindus and Muslims. The 2018 study found a high 22-25 per cent growth rate in Muslim population as compared to 8-10 per cent of other communities. There is a rise in religiosity with higher attendance of children at mosques for more frequent namaz. These could be first step towards radicalisation.Citing “glamourised funerals” of militants as a reason for recruitment of local youths into militancy, Jammu and Kashmir Police’s intelligence wing has asked the state police to take steps to prevent “massive and multiple” funerals of militants in the Valley. “The funerals of killed militants have become a fertile ground for recruiters,” reads a confidential report sent by the Inspector General of Police (IGP), Criminal Investigation Department (CID), to Director General of Police S P Vaid.The report states, “(The) massive gatherings that are being witnessed in funerals of killed local militants post-2016 unrest is a serious concern which has to be addressed…. These gatherings romanticise and glamourise the terrorists and give boost to militancy.”Terrorists in apple orchids or remote jungle Naxalites can be eliminated by killer drones with minimum casualtyCiting many examples of young men who have joined militant ranks after attending the funeral of a slain militant, the report says that militants have been successful in glamourising militancy by appearing at such funerals and offering gun salute. The report, prepared two months ago, states: “It has been noticed that soon after burial of killed local militant(s), one or two local boys, who have participated in their funerals, join militancy. By giving regular appearance at funerals to give gun salutes, or to put forth their point of view/ideology, active militants have been successful in glamourising subversive activities. The massive turnout at funerals of killed terrorists is an indicator of the radicalisation level.”The report calls for keeping an eye on potential recruits living in the locality of the slain militant and the need to keep them away from such funerals. These youths, “who have inclination towards militancy”, should be called to the police station concerned and directed to remain there until the burial is over, the report suggests. “The process should be initiated while the encounter is going on.”In November 2018, 39 terrorists were killed in Jammu and Kashmir, the highest in the year and around 250 terrorists were killed in 2018 which is highest in recent years. Terrorist organisations like Lashkar-e-Toiba, Hizbul Mujahideen and Jaish-e-Mohammad suffered big blow. Army Chief General Bipin Rawat had said that the security forces are ‘one by one’ killing terrorists and hard intelligence is coming from the local population. Local recruitment after attending terrorists funeral is also reducing. In 2018, 44 districts were removed from the list of Naxalite affected disctrict but brutal killing of CRPF jawans continue in naxalite areas. This will again happen during April-May 2019 elections.Former Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh said ‘left extremism or naxaliteism is the biggest internal threat to India’s security.

The city is famous for its leather and textile industries. It is the 12th most populous city in India and 11th most populous urban agglomeration. It is also the second largest city proper and the largest urban agglomeration in Uttar Pradesh. Kanpur was an important British garrison town until 1947 when India gained independence. Kanpur the administrative headquarter of Kanpur (Urban) district and Kanpur division.Located on the west bank of the Ganges River, it is a major trade and commercial centre in North India with the first woollen mill of India, the British India Corporation established here in 1876 by Alexander McRobert. The city is widely regarded as "The Leather City of the World" and is also nicknamed as "Manchester of India".According to 2011 Indian census, it is the eleventh most populous urban city while the population of city and its suburb were around 5 million making it the eighth-most populous metropolitan area in India. Furthermore it is considered the world's most polluted city by particulate matter concentration.Contents1 History1.1 1857 uprising2 Metropolitan area3 Climate4 Demographics5 Administration and Politics5.1 Administration5.1.1 General administration5.1.2 Police administration5.1.3 Civic Administration5.1.4 Judiciary5.2 Politics6 Transport7 Education and research8 See also9 References10 External linksHistoryIn 1207, Raja Kanh Deo of the Kanhpuria clan established the village of Kanhpur, which later came to be known as Kanpur.[6][7]In 2018, Kanpur, was considered by the World Health Organization as the city with the world's worst air pollution.[8]1857 uprisingMain article: Siege of CawnporeIn the 19th century, Cawnpore was an important British garrison with barracks for 7,000 soldiers. During the Indian Rebellion of 1857, 900 British men, women and children were besieged in the fortifications for 22 days by rebels under Nana Sahib Peshwa. They surrendered on the agreement that they would get safe passage to the nearby Satti Chaura Ghat whereupon they would board barges and be allowed to go by river to Allahabad.[9]Though controversy surrounds what exactly happened at the Satti Chaura Ghat, and who fired the first shot, it is known that, soon afterwards, the departing British were shot at by the rebel sepoys and were either killed or captured. Some of the British officers later claimed that the rebels had, on purpose, placed the boats as high in the mud as possible, to cause delay. They also claimed that Nana Sahib's camp had previously arranged for the rebels to fire upon and kill all the English. Although the East India Company later accused Nana Sahib of betrayal and murder of innocent people, no evidence has ever been found to prove that Nana Sahib had pre-planned or ordered the massacre. Some historians believe that the Satti Chaura Ghat massacre was the result of confusion, and not of any plan implemented by Nana Sahib and his associates. Lieutenant Mowbray Thomson, one of the four male survivors of the massacre, believed that the rank-and-file sepoys who spoke to him did not know of the killing to come.[10]Many were killed and the remaining 200 British women and children were brought back to shore and sent to a building called the Bibighar (the ladies' home). After some time, the commanders of the rebels decided to kill their hostages. The rebel soldiers refused to carry out orders and butchers from the nearby town were brought in to kill the hostages three days before the British entered the city on 18 July. The dismembered bodies were thrown into a deep well nearby. The British under General Neill retook the city and committed a series of retaliations against the rebel Sepoys and those civilians caught in the area, including women, children and old men. The Cawnpore Massacre, as well as similar events elsewhere, were seen by the British as justification for unrestrained vengeance.[11] "Remember Cawnpore" became a war cry for British for the rest of the rebellion.Metropolitan areaThe metropolitan region defined under JNNURM by Kanpur Nagar Nigam, includes the Kanpur Nagar Nigam area, 8 kilometres around KNN boundary and newly included 47 villages of Unnao district on the north-eastern side, it extends to Murtaza Nagar, in the west its limit is up to Akbarpur, Kanpur Dehat Nagar Panchayat limit, on the eastern side the limit has been expanded on the road leading to Fatehpur and in extended up to.
