Home Adviser Jahangir Alam Chowdhury has reassured that the Bangladesh-Myanmar border remains secure. “There are no security threats on our borders,” he stated. However, he acknowledged that the Arakan Army currently controls parts of the Bangladesh-Myanmar border region, making it uncertain whether Myanmar or the Arakan Army will have control in the future. “To maintain stability, the Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) is maintaining communication with both sides,” he explained. He also announced the deployment of four additional battalions alongside the existing 64 BGB battalions, strengthening the country’s border security capabilities. The adviser expressed hope that these reinforcements would enhance efforts to curb drug trafficking and smuggling.
