The Indo-Tibetan Border Police order has been forwarded to all commands, frontiers, zones & battalions. It came on plea for gender change by a female personnel.
The arrested men, identified as Norbu Dorjee (69) and Tenzin Targy (40), were apprehended by patrolling team of the 21st battalion of the force guarding international border with China.
