India, Bangladesh commence border discussions

October 01-15, 2011

For a week in Dhaka, officials of India and Bangladesh are discussing cross-border terror and effective patrolling of frontiers. A 21-member delegation led by Border Security Force (BSF) Director General Raman Srivastava is in Dhaka and the outcome of the meeting will be known on September 30.

The Indian delegation is meeting the Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) officials led by chief Major General Anwar Hussain and discuss issues like presence of Indian insurgent groups in that country and their deportation. The officials will also take stock of their recent joint decision to deploy non-lethal weapons and granting of free access to Bangladeshi nationals in the ‘teenbigha’ corridor along the Indo-Bangla border. BSF and BGB man the 4,096-km-long India-Bangladesh border.
