In an embarrassment to the Border Security Force, an officer played a porn clip during a darbar meeting of personnel at the headquarters of the 77th Battalion in Ferozepur on Sunday.
BSF inspector general, Punjab frontier, Mukul Goyal orderd an inquiry after the porn clip was played at the meeting where eight women personnel were also present.
“The darbar is a platform to discuss issues faced by the personnel but it left many red-faced when a deputy commandant started giving a presentation through his official laptop only to play the porn movie. The clip played for 90 seconds before it was abruptly shut down,” said a source.
The IG said, “Such material should not have been on the official laptop of an officer. We are taking the matter seriously. That’s why an inquiry has been ordered.”
The incident comes months after a BSF jawan, Tej Bahadur Yadav, shared the poor quality of food served in the force on social media. He was later dismissed from service.
