Three rocket-like objects were found while workers dug a trench for a municipal water pipeline beside the road of A S M Abdur Rab Government College in Ramgati, Lakshmipur. The discovery was made on Wednesday morning. Sub-engineer Rifat Hasan informed the local police station after the objects emerged from the soil, and curious residents gathered at the site.

Ramgati police officer Liton Dewan said three “rocket launchers” were found during the digging work for the water line. The report described them as objects resembling rockets, while noting that it was not yet clear what they contained.

Police recovered the objects and kept them in station custody. The report described a rocket launcher as a type of temporary firearm that functions as an unguided object.
