Besides, BSF will keep extra vigil in the evening retreat ceremony anticipating that there may be some reaction from the people across the border.

BSF IG Aditya Mishra said: "We are keeping a close eye. After the death of Sarabjit Singh, protest was taken out by the BJP at Attari. We cannot rule out any protest on Pakistani side after the death of Sanaullah.”

Since a lot of people would be attending the evening retreat ceremony, extra vigil and deployment would be done at the ceremony, he said.
