About BRO

• The Border Roads Organisation (BRO) is a road construction executive force in India that provides support to and is a part of the Indian Armed Forces. 
• BRO develops and maintains road networks in India’s border areas and friendly neighboring countries.
• The BRO was formed on 7 May 1960 to secure India’s borders and develop infrastructure in remote areas of the north and north-east states of the country. 
• In order to ensure coordination and expeditious execution of projects, the Government of India set up the Border Roads Development Board (BRDB) with the Prime Minister as Chairman of the Board and Defence Minister as Deputy Chairman.
• BRO is also tasked with maintaining this infrastructure including operations such as snow clearance. 
• BRO is instrumental in significantly upgrading and building new India-China Border Roads.
• The BRO undertakes projects in India and friendly countries. These projects typically include developing roads, bridges, and airfields in hostile environments shunned by private enterprises, whether due to security concerns related to hostilities, or because of environmental challenges.
• The organisation motto is Shramena Sarvam Sadhyam  (everything is achievable through hardwork)
