Union Home Minister Amit Shah spoke on Thursday night to the chiefs of the country's border guarding forces, including the BSF that guards India's border with Pakistan, sources said.

During the conversation, the home minister took stock of the situation along the international borders as there has been heightened tension between India and Pakistan following India's strike on multiple locations in Pakistan and PoK on Wednesday and Pakistan's attempts to strike Indian military sites on Thursday.

Indian armed forces foiled the Pakistani attempts.
