The Lok Sabha was informed that a Five Year Modernisation Plan for the six Central Para Military Forces i.e. BSF, CRPF, CISF, Assam Rifles, NSG and ITBP approved in February, 2002 is under implementation in a phased manner. The Plan envisages an investment of Rs.3741 Crores during the five year period on modernisation and upgradation of arms and ammunitions, surveillance and communication equipments, motor-vehicles. This also includes clothing and tentage used in the central Para Military Forces.
