Intranet Prahari project launched for BSF jawans

Issue No. 2 | January 16-31, 2012

All Border Security Force (BSF) Jawans posted in 237 locations will now be able to access their personal data from wherever they are posted. This is a major benefit from the Intranet Prahari Project apart from efficient office management which will help in quick decision making. This was stated by the Union Home Minister P. Chidambaram while launching Intranet Prahari Project at a cost of Rs. 229 crore.

Under this project network connectivity has been extended up to Battalion level i.e to 237 locations of BSF. State-of-the-art data centres have been established; the main data centre; a disaster recovery data centre (in a different seismic zone) and mini data centres at Frontier HQrs for data storage. Sufficient cyber security measures to ensure network security and to prevent data loss or pilferage have been incorporated.

The system will facilitate operational analysis, efficient planning in the domain of procurement, finance and manpower management resulting in quicker and better decision-making and is also expected to considerably reduce paper work.
