We have taken the matter seriously,� Antony said when asked about the detection of 400-mt-long tunnel from Pakistan side into India in Jammu and Kashmir�s Samba sector.Following the detection of the tunnel, a general inspection across the border area was progressing, Antony told reporters on the sidelines of a function here.�I do not want to react more on the matter as a general inspection on the border areas is on,� Antony said.The tunnel, which was apparently dug for infiltration and smuggling, was detected on July 28 after an area caved-in in a straight line at two-three places due to rains near the border fencing near Chillayari Border Out Post (BoP) of BSF along the International Border in Samba sector.
