A push-in attempt by India’s Border Security Force (BSF) involving 28 people at the Bangabari border in Gomostapur upazila of Chapainawabganj was thwarted by the Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) early Wednesday night. The incident occurred around 3 a.m. when BSF personnel from the Ashrafpur camp of the 12th Battalion reportedly tried to push the group from Indian territory into Bangladesh. BGB members intervened promptly, preventing their entry.
According to Lieutenant Colonel Mohammad Ariful Islam Masum, commanding officer of BGB’s 16th Battalion, the group consisted of 12 men, 10 women, and 6 children. Following the failed attempt, the individuals remained stranded on the zero line of the border. BGB has been urging them to return to Indian territory and warned that a push-back will be attempted if they do not comply.
BGB has strengthened patrols and surveillance along the border, while reports indicate that BSF has also increased manpower at its nearby outposts.
