The Teesta Battalion (61 BGB) has intensified security measures along the Patgram border in Lalmonirhat to prevent illegal push-in and smuggling. Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) members are maintaining maximum alert across the area, conducting regular patrols and enhancing intelligence surveillance to stop unauthorized entry.
According to the battalion’s commanding officer, Lieutenant Colonel Syed Fazle Munim, the BGB is operating under a zero-tolerance policy to curb smuggling and illegal infiltration. Special attention is being given to monitoring suspicious individuals and vehicles in the border region. The initiative aims to reduce cross-border crimes such as drug trafficking, cattle smuggling, and human trafficking to the lowest possible level.
The strengthened vigilance reflects BGB’s continued efforts to maintain border security and prevent criminal activities that threaten stability in the frontier areas.
