NEW DELHI: Amid a row over alleged poor quality of food being served to its personnel, BSF has maintained that there was no shortage of rations and security personnel deployed along the border have never complained about food.
In a report submitted to the Home Ministry today, the Border Security Force said there was no shortage of any kind of food at the post where jawan Tej Bahadur Yadav was serving nor anyone serving there had complained about food when a senior BSF officer had visited them a week ago, official sources said.
While the rations at the post on the LoC is provided by the army, it is cooked by BSF personnel tasked for these jobs.
The BSF said ‘daal’ shown in the jawan’s video was uncanned from tinned food ration and ‘parantha’ was cooked in the unit mess as per procedures followed at high-altitude locations.
The complaint of Yadav could be results of some other issues faced by him, the sources said. (AGENCIES)
