Jammu: Border Security Force (BSF) chief UK Bansal is expected in Jammu on Thursday to inspect an underground tunnel dug from Pakistan to infiltrate terrorists into Jammu and Kashmir.

"Bansal will prepare a report to be submitted to the union home ministry," a senior official told IANS.

The tunnel was discovered on July 29 in Sambha district. Officials in Jammu believe it could be 500 meters long and was apparently dug to push weapons and terrorists into India.
