The Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) has strengthened surveillance along the Habiganj border to prevent illegal entry from India. According to the 55 BGB Battalion, the move follows concerns about possible forced crossings from India into Bangladesh. Enhanced patrols, intelligence operations, and coordination with local residents have been implemented across the 103-kilometer border area, including special night operations.

BGB officials stated that members are on high alert to stop any illegal infiltration or human trafficking attempts. Surveillance has been increased at key points, and intelligence monitoring of suspicious movements has been intensified. Local residents reported a visible rise in BGB patrols, both day and night, which they believe has improved overall border security.

Lieutenant Colonel Tanzilur Rahman, commanding officer of the 55 BGB Battalion, said there have been no push-ins through the Habiganj border in the past six months. He added that BGB continues to use night vision, thermal drones, and advanced technology to ensure border safety and protect national sovereignty.
