Bangladesh Home Minister Salahuddin Ahmed has directed the Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) to strengthen surveillance along the border following the West Bengal state assembly election. He made the statement on Wednesday, May 6, after the third session of the final day of the Deputy Commissioners’ Conference at Osmani Memorial Auditorium in Dhaka. The minister said the instruction was issued on Tuesday to ensure alertness at the border, though he did not foresee any major threat.
During the same event, the minister also instructed deputy commissioners to prepare within one month a list of politically motivated and harassing cases for possible withdrawal. He added that new laws would be introduced to curb drug abuse and online gambling. Salahuddin Ahmed further mentioned that several cases related to the anti-discrimination movement after August 5, including genocide and crimes against humanity, were under review. The government will verify these cases to identify genuine accused individuals before disposal.
The directives reflect the ministry’s focus on maintaining border security and addressing politically sensitive legal matters at the district level.
