Par panel raps MoD for failing to service BSF's choppers

New Delhi: A Parliamentary panel has pulled up the Defence Ministry for not honouring its commitment made to the BSF for providing technical support, including supply of spare parts, to the paramilitary force's helicopter fleet.
The BSF's Mi-17 IV chopper fleet not only flies sorties to help anti-naxal operations, but are also used for transporting paramilitary forces.
The panel has also asked the Indian Air Force and the Ministry of Defence (MoD) to plug "operational constraints" which are leading to this problem and ensure a solution so that the BSF is able to operate its fleet in full strength.
