Jawans manning the area say they are aware of threats posed by Pakistani army.
Mine fields line the tough terrain to Jammu and Kashmir's Nowshera, the last Indian outpost on this side of the Line of Control.
This is the first time a media team has been allowed to get so close to the Line of Control. Across the barbed wire Pakistani red flags - a warning that they will respond to any suspicious movement with guns - can be seen.
The area is close to the one of the spots across the Line of Control, where surgical strikes were carried out by the army to destroy terror launch pads on September 29. This is also the place which has seen some of the worst ceasefire violations by Pakistan for the last one month.
The jawans manning the area say they are aware of the threat posed by Border Action Team of the Pakistani army - commandos who have carried out clandestine operations on the Indian soil earlier. They say they are doing everything they can to prevent any infiltration.
Each jawan is armed with sophisticated night vision devices and body sensors - essential to spot infiltrators in the night and keep track of movements across the Line of Control.
Over the last 15 days, they have also been busy responding to Pakistani firing.
"The enemy has resorted to unprovoked ceasefire violation at this location and we have responded strongly. That's why there is a pause in firing for the last two days," said an army jawan.
As night sets in, the entire border fence is lit up. Nights are critical, that's the time when most infiltration attempts take place and ceasefire violations happen.
"I am a MMG (Medium Machine Gun) firer. The entire area in front of me comes under my responsibility. If I sense any enemy movement or if the enemy tries to enter our area, I will destroy it," a jawan said.
