The Border Area Development Programme (BADP) was introduced in the Seventh Plan as a Centrally Sponsored Scheme (CSS) with the objective of infusing a sense of security among the people and building the much needed social and physical infrastructure to propel normal development activities. BADP is to be seen as a Central Government intervention strategy to bring about a balanced development of border areas which encounter area-specific problems, like inaccessibility, remoteness, sense of insecurity arising out of threat perception from external aggression, cross-border terrorism, unlawful activities, etc.
