Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) has strongly objected to the Border Security Force (BSF) of India constructing a new road near the Balairhat border in Kurigram, alleging a violation of international law. Following BGB’s intervention, the construction work was halted, and a battalion commander-level flag meeting was held at the Balairhat Border Outpost under Lalmonirhat Battalion (15 BGB) to assess the situation.
During the meeting, BGB stated that BSF began road construction within 150 yards of border pillar 934 without prior notice, breaching the rule that requires both countries to coordinate any construction within 150 yards of the zero line. BGB demanded adherence to the regulation and proposed forming a joint survey team to inspect the site. BSF commander K.K. Rao responded that no new road was being built but that existing roads were being repaired, assuring that BGB would be informed before any future expansion or new construction.
The meeting also discussed paving the Nageshwari connecting road near Shimulbari BOP, which BSF viewed positively, subject to formal proposals and ethical consideration.
