In the intro, briefly introduce the BSF.
In the body, explain why BSF is not well prepared for its wartime role. Mention the issues such as- ineffective weaponry, IPS leadership issue, the fallacy of presuming infantry attack by the enemy.
Conclude by citing the serious implications of such preparedness in wartime situation.

  Hi Deepika
  Make sure your facts are right, BSF was formed after 1965 war not after 1962 war.
  Briefly explain the role of BSF.
  Need to work upon content, mention some more issues with BSF like its
  unpreparedness to withstand shelling,uninspiring weaponry etc.
  Well structured answer but content need to be more diversified.
  Keep writing!

  Hi Dakshina
  The content is good and well diversified.
  Good use of flow chart .
  Avoid spellings mistakes.
  Work on handwriting.
  Conclusion could be better,
  You can also include keywords like mention BSF as India’s ‘First line of defence’ to fetch extra marks.
  Overall good attempt.
  Keep it up.

  Hi Teja
  In the first part ,you have deviated from the demand of the question.
  Write in brief the various roles of BSF,not on entire one page.
  Way forward needs some more points like coordinated training with army, need to elaborate anti-tank ditches,research needs to be done to mount weapons etc.
  Avoid cutting in your answer.
  Underline important stuff.
  Keep writing !
