A push-in attempt involving 17 people, including men, women, and children, at the Sapahar border in Naogaon failed after firm resistance from the Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB). The Indian Border Security Force (BSF) had tried to push the group into Bangladesh through the 238/MP border pillar area on Friday morning, June 5, but eventually took them back around 1 a.m. on Saturday, June 6. The incident was confirmed by Lieutenant Colonel Mohammad Ariful Islam Masum, commander of the Naogaon Battalion 16 BGB.
According to the report, the BSF continued its push-in attempt for about 19 hours, claiming the group were Bangladeshis. However, during a flag meeting, BSF could not provide proof of their nationality, leading BGB to deny entry. Witnesses said the 17 individuals were visibly distressed as BSF personnel forced them back into India late at night. BGB maintained a strict watch throughout the incident.
BGB later increased patrols in the area, and the situation remained under control. The BGB commander said the border force continues to monitor the region closely to prevent further incidents.
