Bangladesh Enhances Border Vigilance Amid Concerns Over Crossings From IndiaPreviousNext

Bangladesh has increased border patrols and launched awareness campaigns along its frontier with India amid concerns of forced crossings from India. India's foreign ministry requested Bangladesh to verify the nationality of over 2,860 suspected illegal Bangladeshi residents. Bangladesh's Border Guard Battalion is urging vigilance against illegal crossings, human trafficking, and smuggling. While India has pushed back hundreds of people from Assam, Bangladesh insists repatriations follow formal bilateral procedures and warns against unilateral actions.
