India will install Radiation Detection Equipment (RDE) at eight land crossing points along its borders with Pakistan, Bangladesh, Myanmar, and Nepal to prevent the trafficking of radioactive materials for use in nuclear devices. The RDE will be placed at Integrated Check Posts and land ports in strategic locations. The government has awarded the work order for the supply, installation, and maintenance of the RDE to a vendor, with completion expected soon. The RDE will help security agencies monitor cross-border cargo movement and differentiate between radioactive materials and naturally occurring radiation.
