Union Home Minister Amit Shah has directed the authorities to strictly enforce a ‘zero tolerance' policy against illegal constructions within 15 km of the country's borders and demolish all such structures that have come up over the years.

Shah stressed formulating a 360-degree security cover for every border district involving citizens, state machinery, and security agencies.

The home ministry said the border districts have been directed to carry out an in-depth study of the sources, patterns, and networks behind crimes and the drug menace, and to develop lasting solutions.
