What impact do blackout situations have on border areas?
Exploring the effects of blackouts on Rajasthan’s border areas.
- Disruption of Security Measures: Blackouts in border areas can lead to a disruption in security measures such as surveillance cameras, alarms, and communication systems, making it easier for illegal activities to take place.
