How Does BSF Find an Enemy It Can't See? | BSF Intelligence, LoC & Naxal Operations ft. Sunil Dasila

What really happens when a live grenade pin is pulled inches away from you in the dense jungles of Manipur?

Former BSF Operative and NSG Commando Sunil Dasila sits down with Wing Commander Nimish Jain to reveal the unseen, high-stakes world of military intelligence. Border security is not just about standing guard at the fence—it is about entering the unseen battlefield of signals intelligence, human networks, and high-stakes jungle ambushes. Hosted by Wing Commander Nimish Jain, this episode features former BSF and NSG operative Sunil Dasila pulling back the curtain on India's most demanding frontline operations.
